RWTH DNS-Admin

Configuration

To use this provider, add an entry to creds.json with TYPE set to RWTH along with your API Token (which you can create via noc-portal.rz.rwth-aachen.de/dns-admin/en/api_tokens).

The provider may only be used from within the intranet.

Example:

creds.json

{
  "rwth": {
    "TYPE": "RWTH",
    "api_token": "bQGz0DOi0AkTzG...="
  }
}

Metadata

This provider does not recognize any special metadata fields unique to it.

Usage

An example configuration:

dnsconfig.js

var REG_NONE = NewRegistrar("none");
var DSP_RWTH = NewDnsProvider("rwth");

D("example.rwth-aachen.de", REG_NONE, DnsProvider(DSP_RWTH),
    A("test", "1.2.3.4"),
);

Caveats

The default TTL is not automatically fetched, as the API does not provide such an endpoint.

The RWTH deploys zones every 15 minutes, so it might take some time for changes to take effect.
