This is a read-only/monitoring "registrar". It does a DNS NS lookup to confirm the nameserver servers are correct. This "registrar" is unable to update/correct the NS servers but will alert you if they are incorrect. A common use of this provider is when the domain is with a registrar that does not have an API.
Configuration
To use this provider, add an entry to creds.json
with TYPE
set to DNSOVERHTTPS
.
{% code title="creds.json" %}
{
"dohdefault": {
"TYPE": "DNSOVERHTTPS"
}
}
{% endcode %}
The DNS-over-HTTPS provider defaults to using Google Public DNS however you may configure an alternative RFC 8484 DoH provider using the host
parameter.
Example:
{% code title="creds.json" %}
{
"dohcloudflare": {
"TYPE": "DNSOVERHTTPS",
"host": "cloudflare-dns.com"
}
}
{% endcode %}
Some common DoH providers are:
cloudflare-dns.com
(Cloudflare)9.9.9.9
(Quad9)dns.google
(Google Public DNS)
Metadata
This provider does not recognize any special metadata fields unique to DOH.
Usage
An example configuration:
{% code title="dnsconfig.js" %}
var REG_MONITOR = NewRegistrar("dohcloudflare");
D("example.com", REG_MONITOR,
NAMESERVER("ns1.example.com."),
NAMESERVER("ns2.example.com."),
);
{% endcode %}
{% hint style="info" %}
NOTE: This checks the NS records via a DNS query. It does not check the
registrar's delegation (i.e. the Name Server:
field in whois). In theory
these are the same thing but there may be situations where they are not.
