How to work with DNS

Configuring DNS zone Records

DNS Hosting configuration

Even before DNS delegation is transferred, zone editing is available. In your personal account you can create new records and edit existing ones:

  • NS to specify DNS addresses of ALviy servers
  • A for IPv4 IP addresses
  • AAAA for IPv6 IP addresses
  • CNAME to create aliases (aliases) to other domains
  • MX mail servers of your company or third party email providers

After delegating a zone to Alviy.com, the ability to enable proxy mode becomes available. After SSL certificates creating for the zone on Alviy proxy endpoints, the editing mode with options is activated traffic proxying:

  • Switch Proxy traffic redirects traffic to cleaning centers, hiding the target IP address
  • backend modeDefines the communication protocol of Alviy servers for the active proxy mode with the target web server. This is either open transmission of traffic via http, or via the encrypted https protocol

Zone scan

Search for existing entries
