Table of Contents
In order to migrate your current site to your new Pugpig site you will need to make some changes to the DNS records to point your domain name to the new site.
These records are added by the domain owner through their hosting providers UI, you may need to speak with your IT team, or domain owner to make these changes.
A RECORDS
Adding these A records will allow these IP addresses (Fastly, our CDN) to push content to the domain.
Sites often use an APEX domain (without the www), e.g., acme.com, so you will need to add the following A Records:
151.101.1.72
151.101.65.72
151.101.129.72
151.101.193.72
And ideally the following AAAA Records:
2a04:4e42::328
2a04:4e42:200::328
2a04:4e42:400::328
2a04:4e42:600::328
CNAMES
If you wish to have a subdomain, e.g., www.acme.com, you also need the relevant CNAME for the domain.
If you provide both www.acme.com and acme.com we will always redirect to the www version.
www.acme.com 300 IN CNAME pugpig.map.fastly.net
HTTPS Certificates
We will handle all of the HTTPS certificates, and once it is done you can check to ensure you have a lovely green A+ rating by using https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/index.html
CAA Records
If you are using DNS CAA records to restrict the issuing of certificates, please add "globalsign.com" to the allowed list. If you are using a CNAME for the subdoman, the CAA record needs to be added to the parent domain. Without this we will be unable to set up the SSL on the vanity domain. For example add this in addition to existing CAA records
acme.com 300 IN CAA 0 issue "globalsign.com"
Once those are done we will need to follow up with some steps on our side in order to make the new site live.
