Please note: Any changes that you make to your Advanced DNS settings can interrupt your service. If you are not an advanced user, we strongly recommend that you not change these settings without consulting our support department.

To create or edit CNAME records please follow these steps:  

Step 1.
Login to your Rebel account and click Domain Manager.

Step 2.
Click directly on your domain name to access the edit page.

Step 3.
Once you are on the edit page scroll down until you find Manage Advanced DNS Records and click on the link in this section.

Important: If your domain is currently set to Use Third Party Hosting the Advanced DNS will only be allocated with your hosting service provider. If the name server information for your domain is currently set to Park with Rebel, Forward Domain or Host with Rebel you will be able to access the Advanced DNS from within your Rebel account.

Step 4.
Scroll down until you find Canonical Name (CNAME) Records. Click Add New CNAME Record and enter the Host and Points To information as instructed by your hosting service provider. A CNAME Record is not intended for a URL, therefore you should not enter a URL in the Points To field. You can leave the TTL as it is. To save your record click on the green + sign under Actions.

When editing your advanced DNS the propagation time will be approximately 1-2 hours unless you are switching the Nameserver Information from Use Third Party Hosting to our nameservers, in which case the propagation time can be approximately 24-48 hours.
