Please follow these instructions to update the domain name records (DNS zone records) for your domain name.
Login to your domain name registrar or name server host to set the DNS zone records for the domain. This is most commonly the domain Registrar you currently pay for your domain name eg. VentraIP, Crazy Domains, GoDaddy, Namecheap.
A. To update a main website domain name including www subdomain eg. http://www.yourdomain.com.au
i) Create a CNAME record: www.yourdomain.com.au that points to sporty-au-production.trafficmanager.net
Note that a CNAME record or an A record may already exist for www.yourdomain.com.au in which case it should be deleted/replaced by this new CNAME record
ii) Create another CNAME record: awverify.yourdomain.com.au that points to awverify.sportsgroundredirectionauproduction.azurewebsites.net
iii) Configure the A-Record: yourdomain.com.au to IP address 13.73.118.104
iv) Create a TXT record: asuid.yourdomain.com.au 0F91EEE333BBD57632ACF4EF233A394AE4C174DBC071EC8A9CD95834560676F2
v) Create another TXT record: asuid.www.yourdomain.com.au 0F91EEE333BBD57632ACF4EF233A394AE4C174DBC071EC8A9CD95834560676F2
Note TXT records may already exist. Please leave in place existing TXT records.
Please leave any MX records in place so email is not impacted
Email support@sportsground.co.nz to advise details of the domain name once your setup has been completed.
Once all records are set, it will show the following screen. Please email support@sportsground.co.nz once this is appearing so Sporty can switch the domain name across.
If your organisation uses Cloudflare please see this support article for further instructions.
When you update the DNS zone records it will display a blue screen (screen shot below) and the site will be unavailable until the records are set at our end. Therefore, we request you to please make the DNS changes as late in the day as possible to minimise any downtime. We will then update the configuration in Microsoft Azure at our end.
