# HEXONET Provider
|
|
|
|
HEXONET is a leading developer and operator of domain names and DNS platforms.
|
|
Individual, service provider and registrars around the globe choose HEXONET for
|
|
domains and DNS because of our advanced technology, operational performance and
|
|
up-time, and most importantly for DNS expertise. DnsControl with HEXONET's DNS
|
|
marries DNS automation with an industry-leading DNS platform that supports DNSSEC,
|
|
PremiumDNS via Anycast Network, and nearly all of DnsControl's listed provider features.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
Please provide your HEXONET login data in your credentials file `creds.json` as follows:
|
|
|
|
{% highlight json %}
|
|
{
|
|
"hexonet": {
|
|
"apilogin": "your-hexonet-account-id",
|
|
"apipassword": "your-hexonet-account-password",
|
|
"apientity": "LIVE", // for the LIVE system; use "OTE" for the OT&E system
|
|
"ipaddress": "172.31.3.16", // provide here your outgoing ip address
|
|
"debugmode": "0", // set it to "1" to get debug output of the communication with our Backend System API
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
{% endhighlight %}
|
|
|
|
Here a working example for our OT&E System:
|
|
|
|
{% highlight json %}
|
|
{
|
|
"hexonet": {
|
|
"apilogin": "test.user",
|
|
"apipassword": "test.passw0rd",
|
|
"apientity": "OTE",
|
|
"debugmode": "0",
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
{% endhighlight %}
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Here an example DNS Configuration `dnsconfig.js` using our provider module.
|
|
Even though it shows how you use us as Domain Registrar AND DNS Provider, we don't force you to do that.
|
|
You are free to decide if you want to use both of our provider technology or just one of them.
|
|
|
|
{% highlight javascript %}
|
|
// Providers:
|
|
var REG_HX = NewRegistrar('hexonet', 'HEXONET');
|
|
var DNS_HX = NewDnsProvider('hexonet', 'HEXONET');
|
|
|
|
// Set Default TTL for all RR to reflect our Backend API Default
|
|
// If you use additional DNS Providers, configure a default TTL
|
|
// per domain using the domain modifyer DefaultTTL instead.
|
|
// also check this issue for [NAMESERVER TTL](https://github.com/StackExchange/dnscontrol/issues/176).
|
|
DEFAULTS(
|
|
{"ns_ttl":"3600"},
|
|
DefaultTTL(3600)
|
|
);
|
|
|
|
// Domains:
|
|
D('abhoster.com', REG_HX, DnsProvider(DNS_HX),
|
|
NAMESERVER('ns1.ispapi.net'),
|
|
NAMESERVER('ns2.ispapi.net'),
|
|
NAMESERVER('ns3.ispapi.net'),
|
|
NAMESERVER('ns4.ispapi.net'),
|
|
A('elk1', '10.190.234.178'),
|
|
A('test', '56.123.54.12')
|
|
);
|
|
{% endhighlight %}
|
|
|
|
## Metadata
|
|
|
|
This provider does not recognize any special metadata fields unique to HEXONET.
|
|
|
|
## New domains
|
|
|
|
If a dnszone does not exist in your HEXONET account, DNSControl will *not* automatically add it with the `dnscontrol push` or `dnscontrol preview` command. You'll need to do that via the control panel manually or using the command `dnscontrol create-domains`.
|
|
This is because it could lead to unwanted costs on customer-side that we want to avoid.
|
|
|
|
## Debug Mode
|
|
|
|
As shown in the configuration examples above, this can be activated on demand and it can be used to check the API commands send to our system.
|
|
In general this is thought for our purpose to have an easy way to dive into issues. But if you're interested what's going on, feel free to activate it.
|
|
|
|
## IP Filter
|
|
|
|
In case you have ip filter settings made for you HEXONET account, please provide your outgoing ip address as shown in the configuration examples above. |
