The RootSrvrInfo Zone is a Zone object, an eDirectory container object that
contains resource record sets for the DNS root servers. The resource record
sets contain Address records and Name Server records that provide pointers
for DNS queries to the root servers. The RootSrvrInfo Zone object is the
equivalent of the BIND db.root file.
