Subdomains and DNS Information

In addition to managing domains you can also manage any corresponding sub-domains. To add sub-domains to any domain, click the 'DNS' tab in the lower pane. The 'Add' button in the footer of the sub-domain table is used to add sub-domains.

How to add subdomains

Use the add button at the footer of the subdomain table to add subdomains.

Add Subdomains

You can use full hostnames if the subdomain has no extra dots in them. For example, the following entries will work.

demo.softnik.com
demo.softnik.co.uk

The above will add demo as the subdomain for softnik.com and softnik.co.uk domains.

If the domains are not already present in the database, they will be added. Any default subdomains you have configured will also get added.

If the subdomains contain dots (eg. alpha.my), you should use a comma to separate subdomains and the actual domains.

alpha.demo,softnik.com
beta.demo,softnik.co.uk

The above will add alpha.demo and beta.demo as the subdomains for softnik.com and softnik.co.uk respectively.

Make sure that you enter each entry as a single row. You can mix both the comma separated entries and full hostnames. See below.

alpha.demo,softnik.com
demo.softnik.co.uk
beta.demo,softnik.co.uk
demo.softnik.com

SPF, DMARC and other TXT Records

Watch My Domains SED supports TXT record lookups, so you will be able to monitor your SPF and DMARC records. You can also monitor the DKIM records if you add the selectors as a sub-domain entry. Make sure to enable Extended Subdomain Lookups in application settings (see screen-shot) so that the TXT records for added subdomains are also looked up.
