- Sign in to your DigiCert® DNS account. 
- From the landing page, go to the left sidebar and select DNS > Configurations. 
- Select the SECONDARY IP SETS tab. - The table displays all the secondary IP sets associated with the account. - ヒント- Use Columns and Filters to customize your view of the results. 
注記
This procedure displays the details of a specific secondary IP set (ipset) created in an earlier procedure. Follow Path 1 if there are only a few results to review. Follow Path 2 if you prefer to filter results quickly.
 To test this function, call this API endpoint: GET /ipsets/secondary/{ipSetId}
Path 1
- Sign in to your DigiCert® DNS account. 
- From the landing page, go to the left sidebar and select DNS > Configurations. 
- Select the SECONDARY IP SETS tab. - The table displays all the secondary IP sets associated with the account.
