Create a zone
Last update:

Create a zone

  1. in control panels from the top menu, press Products and select DNS hosting.

  2. Click Add a zone.

  3. Enter the DNS zone name — the name of the domain with a dot, for example, example.com..

  4. Click Add.

    The zone will automatically create NS and SOA records with default values:

    • NS — a.ns.selectel.ru., b.ns.selectel.ru., c.ns.selectel.ru., d.ns.selectel.ru.
    • SOA IS. a.ns.selectel.ru. support.selectel.ru. <zone_serial_number> 10800 3600 604800 60where <zone_serial_number> — zone serial number, which changes when the zone is updated and signals to the caching servers that records need to be cached again.

    After creating a zone, you can add resource records. In order for records in the zone to start being sent to the DNS system, you must delegate a domain.
