DNAME Redirection in the DNS

Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Standard
Pages: 22
Abstract: The DNAME record provides redirection for a subtree of the domain name tree in the DNS. That is, all names that end with a particular suffix are redirected to another part of the DNS. This document obsoletes the original specification in RFC 2672 as well as updates the document on representing IPv6 addresses in DNS (RFC 3363). [STANDARDS-TRACK]
