Info
titleOTHER Record Types

When working with DNS Zones and Records, additional record types may be manually added by selecting "Other" when adding a new record.

S64 DNS users can use record type "Other" to add "SYNTH"  or "TYPE65464" type records similar to the format below:


$ORIGIN 30 IN TYPE65464 ${p4} PTR ${a4}.pool.example.com.
$ORIGIN 600 IN TYPE65464 ${a4} A ${a4}
$ORIGIN TYPE65464 ${p6} PTR user${a6}.my.example.com.
$ORIGIN 5 IN SYNTH user${a6} AAAA ${a6}
$ORIGIN IN SYNTH nptr-${u} NAPTR 10 20 "A" "" "" srv-${u}
$ORIGIN IN SYNTH srv-${u} SRV 10 20 1234 srv-addr-${u}


However, arbitrary / other record types are unable to be validated, so use with care!


Any user with appropriate resource permissions on the DNS Zone / DNS Group may add, edit, or delete DNS Records.
