Domain
Summary
Domains allow you to manage public DNS records for the Domain, and automatic DNS, CDN, and Email configuration.
Create
Browse to to the Domains tab, then click on the + button:
Specify the information (must be a Fully Qualified Domain Name, FQDN), and
click Save.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Domain Name | A fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) |
| Contact Email | The primary contact email (admin) for the new Domain |
| Property | An optional Property the Domain is associated with |
After saving your changes, expand the domain and click on the Nameserver Status icon to the left
of the trash icon to view the nameserver status in Public DNS.
This will bring up a new dialog box that shows nameserver status in Public DNS. In the case below, I have configured a child-domain of my main ‘hhost.io’ domain, so I would need to add a child-domain with NS records before it will work in Public DNS.
Verified Example
This is what an example looks like once everything is setup correctly and verified:
Due to the way DNS works, when you refresh the status of your nameservers, it may change between verified and unverified. This is normal, as it takes time to propagate the changes across the public internet. If it is still unverified after 24h, please contact us.
Add Records
We do not allow adding or editing DNS records for NS or SOA, as those are self-managed by the HonestHosting platform.
In order to add Records, click on Create Record:
Assuming we are creating a record foobar123.localdev.honesthosting.io that will resolve to the IP Addresses
127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.2, 127.0.0.3 using an A record, this is what it should look like:
After saving the Record, it will show up in your list of Records for the Domain.
