name: PURGE

`PURGE` is the default setting for all domains.  Therefore `PURGE` is
a no-op. It is included for completeness only.

A domain with a mixture of `NO_PURGE` and `PURGE` parameters will abide
by the last one.

These three examples all are equivalent.

`PURGE` is the default:

{% code title="dnsconfig.js" %}
```javascript
D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
);
```
{% endcode %}

Purge is the default, but we set it anyway:

{% code title="dnsconfig.js" %}
```javascript
D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
  PURGE,
);
```
{% endcode %}

Since the "last command wins", this is the same as `PURGE`:

{% code title="dnsconfig.js" %}
```javascript
D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
  PURGE,
  NO_PURGE,
  PURGE,
  NO_PURGE,
  PURGE,
);
```
{% endcode %}
