REST API
Can be enabled per account. The access token can be regenerated at any time.
Comprehensive REST API provides full manageability for Domains and Host records: create, read, update, and delete operations. The API fully supports Domain Templates too.
Vanity Nameservers
Vanity nameservers (custom nameservers) are available as part of DNS Plus.
The hostmaster address is also configurable.
IPv4 & IPv6
Nearly all of our nameservers have full (native) IPv6 support.
Standard lookups: IPv4 (A) and IPv6 (AAAA).
Reverse lookups: IPv4 (in-addr.arpa, PTR) and IPv6 (ip6.arpa, PTR).
Master/slave support
Support (configured per-domain) for external master or slave DNS servers.
We provide a dedicated, hidden master to support external slaves.
We also provide two dedicated, hidden slaves which replicate zone data from an external master to our production nameservers.
