摘要

網際網路已成為全球性的通訊媒體，網域名稱（簡稱域名）也鈐為通訊上使用者所熟悉的命名識別機制，因而國際化域名（簡稱IDN）的服務就顯得格外重要。網際網路IDN標準之一 RFC[3490-2] 闡述IDN在通訊、域名解析時所使用的通訊協定，但在IDN管理、部署、域名資料準備及相關過度方案並沒有提出相關標準。
國際化域名維運（簡稱IDNOP）建立一個機制，此機制將域名伺服器（DNS）管理及維運面的議題作整體性的整合。此整合機制涵蓋下列各項目
－字元對映準備[Charprep]
－國際化域名資料檔準備[Zoneprep]
－EEP 上之國際化域名對映[EPP-I]
－國際化域名註冊規範[IDNREG]
－國際化域名過度性解析[IDNX]

並列摘要

The introduction of internationalized domain names (IDN) is an important and critical feature of the Internet as a global medium and for domain names to continue to be relevant as a user-friendly naming system in the multinational context. While the IDN set of RFCs [3490-2] have outlined a protocol for the transportation and resolution of IDNs, the additional management for provisioning, zone preparations as well as transition was not prescribed.
The IDNOP describes a framework for the following outstanding issues on the management and operations of IDNs for DNS Zone operator:
-Character Equivalency Preparations [Charprep]
-Zone Preparations for IDNs [Zoneprep]
-IDN Mapping for EPP [EPP-I]
-IDN Registry Implementation Guidelines [IDNREG]
-IDN Transitional Resolution [IDNX]
