Subdomains (again)

Help with Setup/Upgrade
1

Good evening,

apologize but I could not find a clear answer here.

I have a domain: example.com
I let MIAB doing the DNS
Hence I have: ns1.mail.example.com and ns2.mail.example.com

Now I add another domain to my MIAB: example2.com
I set, in my domain provider, the GLUE records to ns1.mail.example2.com and ns2.mail.example2.com
I set, in my domain provider, A records for ns1.mail.example2.com and ns2.mail.example2.com to point to MIAB box
I set, in my domain provider, the DNS for the domain to ns1.mail.example.com and puck.nether.net

All perfect and working.

Now, I want to add a SUBDOMAIN to example2.com: sub.example2.com

In my domain provider: do I have to create GLUE records? Do I have to create A records (e.g. ns1.mail.sub.example2.com)?

Thanks so much,

Cheers,

F

No. And you did not have to create them for example2.com either.

A Glue record is only required when there is a DNS server that is authoritative for the domain being served hosted on that same domain.

Thank you Alento,

so this mean i just have to create the subdomain users in MIAB? Everything else is left unchanged?

As long as MiaB is serving the DNS for the domain, correct.
