Set default DNS records
Choose default records for new registrations and, optionally, transferred-in domains.
Before you start
- Applying defaults to transferred-in domains overwrites their nameservers and DNS records and can interrupt existing services.

Open DNS Defaults
Open Manage → DNS Defaults. Review Apply to new registrations and Apply to transferred-in domains. Enable only the scopes you intend to use.
Choose when the DNS defaults should apply. - 2
Add root and subdomain records
Click Add domain record for the root domain, or Add subdomain record for names such as www. Choose a type and enter the values supplied by your service provider. Use the delete control to remove an unwanted default record.
Each default record has its own type and value fields. - 3
Review advanced options and save
Open Advanced if your setup needs the additional settings. Check the records and the transferred-in warning, then click Save defaults. Wait for the saved confirmation.
What happens next
The saved defaults apply to the enabled future registration or transfer-in flows.
