Activate CDN for a Website


  • Select the target website from the drop-down at top-left
  • Click 'CDN' > 'Settings' > 'Activation'

You need to change your site's authoritative DNS server to ITarian  DNS in order to activate the CDN. Alternatively, you can add a CNAME entry to your DNS records.


See the following links for more help:


  • Register your site with ITarian DNS
Activate the CDN:

  • Option A - Change your authoritative DNS to ITarian DNS
  • Option B - Add a CNAME to your DNS

Register your site with ITarian DNS


  • Select the target website from the menu at top-left
  • Click the 'CDN' tab
  • Click 'Settings'
  • Click the 'Activation' tab

SOCaaP Web Protection automatically registers your site with the CDN service:





Next, use one of these two methods to configure your site to use our DNS:


  • Change your authoritative DNS to ITarian DNS
  • Add a CNAME to your DNS


Note - You should also configure SSL settings in SOCaaP Web Protection to avoid interruptions to HTTPS traffic. See SSL Configuration for more on this.


Option A - Change your authoritative DNS to ITarian DNS


  • Click CDN > Settings > Activation
  • ITarian name servers are shown in the ‘value’ column:



  • Go to your site's DNS management page and enter the new name servers
  • See https://support.google.com/domains/answer/3290309?hl=en if you need more help with name server changes
  • It may take up to 24 hours for the update to propagate. The status column will say ‘Name servers are set’ once the change is live:

 

  • After changing to ITarian DNS, you need to use SOCaaP Web Protection to manage your DNS settings going forward
  • For example, changes to your MX records must be done in SOCaaP Web Protection, not in your web host's DNS management page
  • You can access the management page as follows:
  • Select a website from the drop-down at top-left
  • Click the ‘DNS’ tab to manage the site’s DNS records
  • See 'Manage DNS Records' if you want further help with this


Option B - Add a CNAME to your DNS


  • Click 'CDN' > 'Settings' > 'Activation'
  • The CNAME and A records for your site are shown in section B:



  • Go to your website's DNS management page and enter the 'CNAME' and 'A' records
  • See https://support.google.com/a/topic/1615038?hl=en if you need more help to add records
  • DNS propagation may take around 30 minutes depending on your hosting provider
  • The status column will say ‘Configured’ once the change is live:
