What is the DNS Check for?

If your name servers are not hosted at FireStorm but with an external provider (e.g. your domain registrar), you need to configure the DNS records yourself. Our DNS Check verifies whether your records point correctly to FireStorm — so that your website, email and SSL certificates work properly.

What does it check?

Website — Does your domain point to the correct FireStorm server? Email — Are your MX records set to our mail servers? Spam protection — Are SPF and DMARC configured so your emails don't end up in spam? Security — Are CAA records set so SSL certificates can be issued?

What do the colours mean?

Green — All good, the record points correctly to FireStorm. Orange — Works, but could be improved. Red — Something is wrong — your website or email may not work because of this. The DNS guide above shows you which records to set.
