Netnod Primary DNS

Migrate DNS zones to or from Netnod Primary DNS: what's supported, what access you need, and what changes for each destination.

Access we need

Credentials
API token (Authorization: Token)
Permissions

Good to know

  • Netnod publishes no public API reference; the adapter follows Netnod's official Go client, and TTL limits are not documented.
  • Each change replaces a whole name+type set, so records disabled in the Netnod portal are dropped when that set is edited.
  • New zones get Netnod's default nameservers; zone transfer keys and NOTIFY targets must be set up with Netnod separately.
