What is Domain Management?

For Zettagrid customers, Domain management is the ongoing process of updating your domain to point to the correct servers on the internet. Once you have registered your domain, you need to be able to tell internet users where to find the website. In this case you would want to point them to Zettagrid. The non-technical process works like this:

If you type in the domain name, say www.eon.net.au

1. Your computer looks up where the domain is registered with a central authority (or a copy).
2. This server then tells your computer where to find more information about www.eon.net.au. It will say to go an ask Zettagrid's Domain Servers.
3. Our Domain Servers then contain all of the information about your domain including where to find your website files, where to send email etc.
4. Then your computer requests the information from the server hosting the website? All done!

Our Domain Management provides maintenance of domain information relating to steps 3 to 5. We give you access to an advanced DNS Toolbox to use as part of our annual Domain Management fee.
