software.es.net subdomain can't be found

NOTE: The iperf3 issue tracker is for registering bugs, enhancement requests, or submissions of code. It is not a means for asking questions about building or using iperf3. Those are best directed towards the Discussions section for this project at https://github.com/esnet/iperf/discussions or to the iperf3 mailing list at iperf-dev@googlegroups.com. A list of frequently-asked questions regarding iperf3 can be found at http://software.es.net/iperf/faq.html.

Context

The link in the GitHub issue template, above, to software.es.net does not work because the subdomain can't be found. Other references and links to the subdomain are also found through iperf3 --help, on the README.md for this repository, and at https://fasterdata.es.net/performance-testing/network-troubleshooting-tools/iperf/.

Archive.org shows the site was working a month ago: https://web.archive.org/web/20220207121232/http://software.es.net/ Today, when I try to save this page to archive.org to show that it isn't working, it says "Sorry" "Cannot resolve host software.es.net." https://web.archive.org/save/https://software.es.net/iperf Domains normally don't go entirely offline during maintenance, so I'm guessing it's not an intentional or transient change.

I tried a website I found via Google that claims to enumerate subdomains and it did not find the software subdomain of es.net: https://pentest-tools.com/information-gathering/find-subdomains-of-domain

Bug Report

• Expected Behavior: Links in the README or --help output lead to servers that are accessible from the public internet

• Actual Behavior: Chrome on MacOS gives DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN. Desktop and mobile Safari give similar error messages, as does archive.org.

• Steps to Reproduce: Try to visit the link: http://software.es.net/iperf/faq.html

• Possible Solutions:

  • Change the link in the documentation and elsewhere
  • Put the server and DNS information online again
