<p>The 50<sup>th</sup> annivesary of Tanzania’s independence was
celebrated in style by tzNIC staff as it coincided with the
commissioning of the F-root Server at Tanzania Network Information
Centre (tzNIC) offices. The long awaited project commenced on 5<sup>th</sup>
December 2011 and was successfully carried out by Internet Systems
Consortium’s (ISC) Senior Operations Architect Mr. Peter Losher in
collaboration with tzNIC technical staff. The availability of the F-root
server in Tanzania will facilitate the full localization of .tz
Internet traffic as well as provide resilience, robustness and
responsiveness of the Domain Name System (DNS).</p>
<p>This milestone comes after tzNIC had achieved the full management
(redelegation) of the .tz ccTLD and decentralization of .tz registry
services (through the 3R model) to about 20 accredited registrars. Just
after commissioning of the F-root server the latency improved to less
than 10 msec from 200 msec before the installation. </p></td>
