Add a DNS area (for external domain)

This guide explains how to order a DNS area from Infomaniak.

Preamble

• Owning the DNS area at Infomaniak is useful if your domain name is registered elsewhere (third-party provider / registrar) and you want to easily link this domain with Infomaniak products.
• Indeed it is not enough to own a site domain.xyz at Infomaniak and enter the 2 DNS addresses of Infomaniak at the domain name registrar (if this is not Infomaniak) for the site to appear when you type domain.xyz in a browser.
• You need to add a DNS area to the same location as the hosting to make the site work easily.
• This will also be particularly useful if the provider that manages your domain name does not propose a DNS zone management.
