Add DNS Record

Warning

Remember that x.x.x.250 and above are reserved for use by White Team. IScorE will not allow you to create an A record for those addresses.

  1. On the menu on the left side, click “DNS Records”. A screen like the one below will appear.

  2. You may enter in three different types of DNS records: A, CNAME, and TXT. This can be chosen by selecting the type in the drop down menu labeled “Type” in the figure above. If you do not know what a CNAME or TXT DNS record does, use the default, A, which maps a name to an IP address.

  3. Once you have selected the type, enter in the value.

    1. If the type is A, enter in the name and last number of the IP address. Your domain and the first three numbers of the IP address are entered in by default.

    2. If the type is CNAME, enter in the name and then select the other DNS record from the Value drop-down menu. The name will be an alias for the other DNS record.
