The tutorial: step 2

In this step we will look at the configuring your name server and adding your domain.

Allowing zone transfer (AXFR)

Your name server should be configured to allow zone transfers (also commonly called AXFR) from the Solid DNS name servers. This will allow our servers to fetch a copy of your zone.
The IP addresses of our name servers are 97.107.140.116 / 2001:470:1f07:2ae::1 and 79.170.89.214 / 2a02:348:37:1dd6::1.

Adding the domain

To add your zone, go to the add domain page. Enter the IP address of your master and the name of the zone.
We'll try to retrieve a copy of your zone and do a few basic checks on it. If it checks out, your domain will have been added.
