Prerequisites<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before proceeding, ensure the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. You have a registered and active domain<\/strong> in your account.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. The domain\u2019s nameservers are correctly pointed to:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    ns1.cloudoon.com
    ns2.cloudoon.net
    ns3.cloudoon.org<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3. You can access the client area<\/strong> where the domain was registered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Accessing the DNS Manager<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Log in to your client area.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

      Domains \u2192 Manage DNS<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      You should now see the DNS Manager<\/strong> page that lists all existing zones associated with your account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Adding a New DNS Zone<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. On the DNS Manager<\/strong> page, click Add DNS Zone<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        In the pop-up:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • Related Item:<\/strong>
          Select the domain you want to manage. Only domains registered and active under your current account will appear in this dropdown.
          If no domain is active, the list will be empty.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • DNS Zone Template:<\/strong>\n

          • Default Template:<\/strong> Includes minimal essential records.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Workplace Template:<\/strong> Recommended if you are using our business email suite<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Additional templates will be added for management simplicity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            Most fields are pre-filled automatically to simplify the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
