The DS record of cloudflare.com: the DNSSEC delegation signer published in the parent zone.

Example 12 of 13 in **Record Types** · [DNS Lookup Examples](/reference/lookup/dns/examples/) · endpoint: [DNS](/reference/lookup/dns/)

Tags: `param` `domain` · `param` `type` · `value` `cloudflare.com` · `value` `DS`

Asks for the `DS` record of `cloudflare.com`.

A `DS` record in the parent zone (`.com`) links it to the domain's DNSSEC key. The value reads key tag `2371`, algorithm `13` (ECDSA P-256 with SHA-256), digest type `2` (SHA-256) and the digest itself.
