Gebruik de DNS CNAME-validatiemethode om de controle over de domeinen te verifiëren

Controle over uw domein aantonen met een DNS CNAME-record

Use these instructions to validate a domain using the DNS CNAME DCV method. In the domains DNS as a CNAME record, add _dnsauth in the hostname field. Then, add [random_value].dcv.digicert.com to the target host field, to point the random value and domain to DigiCert at dcv.digicert.com.

Controleer de status van uw TLS/SSL-certificaatorder en gebruik de DCV-methode DNS CNAME-record om de controle over een domein in de order aan te tonen. Zie Controle over domeinen op uw SSL-certificaatorder aantonen voor meer informatie.

Before you begin

For faster certificate issuance, validate domains before ordering your OV and EV TLS certificates. Learn more about domain prevalidation.

    1. Go to your DNS provider’s site and create a new CNAME record.

      For more detailed instructions for creating or updating a DNS CNAME record, try the following resources:

      • Your DNS provider's documentation.

      • DigiCert knowledge base for articles like this one: Create a CNAME Record.

    2. In the hostname field (or equivalent), enter _dnsauth.

    3. In the record type field (or equivalent), select CNAME.

    4. In the target host field (or equivalent), enter [random_value].dcv.digicert.com to point the CNAME record to dcv.digicert.com.
