2. click on the icon at the top right of the interface (or navigate using the left side menu, for example)

The syntax is accepted in BIND format.

The DNS zone presented here is valid and used only if the server names are those of Infomaniak. Any modification may take up to 48 hours to propagate.

1. once in the Expert Mode tab (see above), click on Current Version to display the menu containing previous dates:
2. click on the desired date to get a preview of the changes
3. click on the blue Save button on the right to revert to the chosen version
   
4. click on the second dropdown if necessary to access the restoration of delegated subdomains configuration
