Frequently asked questions

We offer the possibility to add TLSA pointers ( RFC6698 ) to DNS for domains. This allows SSL certificates to be authenticated through DNS (protected by DNSSEC).

To add this type of pointer for your domain, do the following:

1. Log in to the control panel at https://www.domainnameshop.com/login
2. Click on My Domains
3. Click on the relevant domain
4. Click the DNS Pointers tab at the top of the page
5. Click Show advanced settings

You can use a web-based tool to generate the required TLSA pointer, for example https://www.huque.com/bin/gen_tlsa .
