How to Activate DNS Service and Configure DNS Records

 

In order to start using the DNS Service, you need to:

  1. Activate the DNS service
  2. Change the Name Servers of your domain name to our Name Servers
  3. Create various records for your domain name

Activate the DNS Service

To activate the DNS service:

  1. Proceed to the DNS Service interface.
  2. Click the Manage DNS link.
    NOTE:
    The DNS Service will be activated when you click the Manage DNS link for the first time.
NOTE:
For Resellers: The DNS Service can be activated only if the Order belongs to a customer immediately under you.

Change the Name Servers of your domain name to our Name Servers

For the DNS Service to work, it is essential that all queries for your domain name reach our Name Servers, which would respond to the query with the records that you have specified. Thus, it is vital that you change the Name Servers for your domain name to our Name Servers.

To change the Name Servers of your domain name to our Name Servers

  1. Proceed to the DNS Service interface.
  2. Click the Name Server Details link.
  3. Here, you would find the list of Name Servers you need to set for your domain name.
    NOTE:
    If the domain name is not registered with us, you need to point your domain name to these Name Servers through the domain name management console provided by your domain name registration service provider.
