How to configure the reverse DNS of a failover IP on Dedibox
You can edit the reverse DNS of a failover IP address to a custom value. This can be useful when you want to send emails from your Dedibox, as certain remote mail servers do not accept emails coming from generic reverse hostnames.
Before you start
To complete the actions presented below, you must have:
- A Dedibox account logged into the console
- Owner status or IAM permissions allowing you to perform actions in the intended Organization
- Linked your Dedibox and Scaleway accounts
- Ordered a Dedibox server and a failover IP
-
Click Dedibox in the Bare Metal section of the side menu.
-
Click the Failover IPs tab to display a list of your failover IPs.
-
Click more icon next to the failover IP you want to edit. A drop-down menu displays.
-
Click Edit reverse. A pop-up displays.
-
Enter a new IPv4 reverse DNS and click Save changes.
The reverse DNS (PTR-Record) of the failover IP is being updated.
