Adding a partial wild-carded Address record Our Managed DNS service currently does not support partial wildcards in Address (A) Records. For instance, consider the following example, where Managed DNS services are purchased for domainname.com: Domain name: domainname.com Go to Manage DNS Records, and add the following A record Hostname: *.something.domainname.com Destination IP Address: 203.199.114.89 The system will throw an exception: Invalid Name *.something for A Records In order to circumvent this, you would have to add a new Managed DNS Order for something.domainname.com, and create the wild-carded A record here, as below. Domain name: something.domainname.com Hostname: *.something.domainname.com Destination IP Address: 203.199.114.89 Now, abc.something.domainname.com will point to 203.199.114.89
