axfr dns record listing

fyi: managed dns services - edgedirector.com

Some users have had difficulty obtaining a listing of their dns records for a domain from their dnsmadeeasy control panel. Viewing the records on screen and then using "send page by email" does not work very well because of the graphical elements.

This note details one method to extract those records.

The control panel at dnsmadeeasy contains a link named AXFR Listing. Clicking the link will produce a screen listing of the records that would be sent if AXFR were enabled. Use your mouse with left-click to select the text of the records. Right-click and select "copy" from the popup menu to copy the text to your clipboard. The copied text can then be pasted into an email or text editor.

If your email client offers a choice, choose plain text as the type of paste operation.

The result should be similar to the example below:

example.com. 86400 IN NS ns0.dnsmadeeasy.com.
example.com. 86400 IN NS ns1.dnsmadeeasy.com.
example.com. 86400 IN NS ns2.dnsmadeeasy.com.
