Introduction

Overview of Chinese Domain Name Encoding Technical Standards

GB/T 44596-2024, as the core part of the Chinese domain name technical standards, establishes the Chinese domain name encoding specification based on Unicode. This standard mainly solves the encoding conversion problem of Chinese domain name fields in the DNS system, and realizes the reversible conversion of non-ASCII characters to ASCII character sets through the Punycode algorithm.


Key Technical Requirements

Technical AspectsComparison with RFC 3491New Requirements of GB/T 44596
String Preprocessing Follow the RFC 3454 framework Explicitly prohibit the use of bidirectional characters
Punycode parameters base=36, tmin=1 New overflow check requirements
Code point processing Unicode 3.2 character set Appendix A clarifies unassigned code points

Preprocessing process case

Take the domain name "示例.中国" as an example:

  1. Mapping stage: convert full-width characters to half-width
  2. Normalization: use NFKC format
  3. Output prohibition check: filter control characters
  4. Punycode encoding: generate "xn--fsq.xn--fiqs8s"

Implementation suggestions

Registration agency

  • A complete string preprocessing framework needs to be implemented
  • Strictly check the prohibited character table in Appendix C
  • Support automatic conversion of LDH prefix "xn--"

Software development

  • Refer to Appendix F for C language implementation examples
  • Handle 26-bit unsigned integer overflow
  • Implement the adapt() bias adjustment function
