The IPS TAG identifies the registrar that renews the domain with Nominet. If you took the domain through Pushbuttonhosting then the IPS flag would be 123reg. Internet Provider Security tags are used by Nominet to identify the hosting company linked to a specific .uk domain name. Nominet is the registry for UK domain names, and all hosting companies which host .uk domains are required to have an IPS tag (also known as a Nominet Provider tag or IPS key) which shows membership of Nominet. The tag is used to identify the company responsible for management of a .uk domain. Its format is a single alpha-numeric sequence, all in capital letters. For example, the 123-reg IPS tag is 123-REG | |
