## RESTRICTION03: Character set restriction for label ### Test case identifier **RESTRICTION03:** Character set restriction for label ### Objective Even though section 11 of [RFC 2181](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2181) mentions that any binary string could be part of a label, many of the registries will not permit special symbols in the label. This is an habit pursued by the registries based on section 2.1 of the [RFC 1123](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1123), i.e. following the LDH (Letters, Digits and Hyphen) format. Even for the IDNs [RFC 5892](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5892) limits to the LDH format. The objective for this test is verify whether the engine identifies the domain names which is not in the LDH format. ### Result The engine does not capture the restriction for LDH and the explanation is provided here : https://github.com/zonemaster/zonemaster/issues/153
