DNS Records

Domain’s DNS records (i.e., zone records) are instructions in the domain’s DNS server that provide information about the domain – for example, which IP address or hostname is associated with a domain or subdomain, and how email traffic is routed.

If you are only using the services provided by Avaruus.net with your domain, you do not need to make any changes to the DNS records. If you are distributing services elsewhere, you will make the necessary changes to the records according to the instructions of the third party.

Making Changes to Records

All changes are made on the Oma Avaruus control panel. If you do not know what changes need to be made to the records, please request instructions from

the party requesting the changes to be made.

Log in to Oma Avaruus.
Go from the main menu to the Domains section and select your domain from the dropdown menu.
Select the Zone Records tab and you will see all the domain’s zone records listed on the tab.

Adding a Record

Press the Add New Record button.
Enter the record type and the other information for the record and save.

Editing a Record

If the record is locked, first unlock it by pressing the lock icon.
You can edit the target value directly into the field or edit all the values by pressing the pencil icon.

When you have added a new record or edited a record, the record will be displayed in the list surrounded by a green frame. This means that the record will be updated the next time zone update occurs. If you want to update the change immediately, you can press the Update Immediately button.

Deleting a Record

If the record is locked, first unlock it by pressing the lock icon.
You can set the record to be deleted by pressing the delete icon.

Troubleshooting?

If adding a new record does not succeed, check that the corresponding record is not already active. For example, a CNAME and an A record cannot be active simultaneously. Therefore, delete the corresponding record before adding a new one.
