Domain Name Services (DNS)

DNS Management

AWS, Azure, and Google all use their own DNS management services. For basic access to machine instances, storage, etc., the providers handle all of the DNS automatically and will generally be sufficient.

Can I use a 3rd party domain name? No, AIP manages a DNS zone for each provider and doesn't support the use of outside domain names within the AIP platform.

Can I use a tamu.edu domain name? Yes, you may use a hostname.tamu.edu address. Get a static IP in the cloud provider and InfoBlox can point to that address. If you need to request a hostname.tamu.edu address, follow the process here: https://itselfservice.tamu.edu/tamucs?id=tamucs_kb_article&sys_id=KB0012907.

AWS
