What is DNS Manager

DNS Manager is a tool available in Console that allows customers to:

  1. Use DigitalFyre's AnyCAST DNS for their domains if they do not have a hosting account, or if they need to use it for a domain that is utilized for a different purpose
  2. Setup rDNS for their assigned IP blocks for Dedicated Servers and IP Transit customers

Each customer can add up to 5 domains to our AnyCAST Network for free. There is a limit of 200 DNS Records per zone, 20 records per record type.
