DefaultTTL

DefaultTTL sets the TTL for all subsequent records following it in a domain that do not explicitly set one with TTL. If neither DefaultTTL or TTL exist for a record, the record will inherit the DNSControl global internal default of 300 seconds. See also DEFAULTS to override the internal defaults.

NS records are currently a special case, and do not inherit from DefaultTTL. See NAMESERVER_TTL to set a default TTL for all NS records.

dnsconfig.js

D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
  DefaultTTL("4h"),
  A("@","1.2.3.4"), // uses default
  A("foo", "2.3.4.5", TTL(600)), // overrides default
END);

The DefaultTTL duration is the same format as TTL, an integer number of seconds or a string with a unit such as "4d".
