This page will either remain a project page (in which case it should be marked to be archived), or will become a meta page for DNS configuration.
Overview
Project date: Mar. 2017
It has been decided that DNS hosting will be migrated from on-site hosting using Infoblox appliances to third-party DNS hosting providers.
Configuration
There will be two hosting providers:
- Primary: DNS Made Easy (username/password found here)
- Secondary: Dyn.com (DynDNS) (username/password found here)
It is important to note that service with Dyn.com is truly secondary DNS i.e. records are not managed there. Rather, Dyn servers pull from DNS Made Easy servers through AXFR - a background mechanism requiring configuration at both providers.
