Validate and publish your zone data

Cloud DNS validates your DNS data by running a suite of automated tests. In addition, it empowers you to run the tests by yourself so that you will be well aware of the test result before the data is published to our production servers.

In order to do that, you need to push your DNS data to our staging zone. A staging zone is a sub zone of staging-test.net which is provided by CDNetworks. Your configuration have been published to our formal DNS server with .staging-test.net. It provides a way to test your configurations publicly.

To test the configurations, you can try this command: dig .staging-test.net @8.8.8.8 ANY. Also, you can use any third-party DNS check tool to test your configuration.

You can push your DNS data to our staging zone by clicking “Push to Staging Zone” button.

1. Click on the “Push to Staging Zone” button.

It might take a few minutes to load as the system runs the automated tests and pushes the zone data to the staging zone. You can also refresh this page manually.

2. Once the configuration is successfully pushed to our Staging Zone, you will see the following screen.

• Click on the “Push to production Zone” button, and you can send the DNS configuration data to Production Zone.
• Click on the “Check Configuration” button, and you can check your DNS data and modify the data.

3. Click on the “Push to production Zone” button and your DNS configuration data will be pushed to all of our production zone.

4. Once the configuration is successfully pushed to production zone, you will see the following screen. And if you don’t want to wait, just refresh the page manually.

• Click on the “Existing Zones” button, and you will be directed to the zone list page.
• Click on the “Check Configuration”, and you can check your DNS data and modify if desired.
