Domain Processes

Creation

Mapping

To allow the server to forward requests to a domain, the domain must first prove that it controls the domain name.

1. Administrator requests domain mapping.
2. Server creates mapping request and provides verification key.
3. Administrator creates DNS TXT record containing verification key.
4. Administrator indicates that request is ready for validation.
5. Server performs DNS lookup and checks for the TXT record.
6. If the record is validated, the domain is added to the hosts mapping.
7. If validation fails, the request may be retried.
