Overview<\/h2>\n

This feature allows you to redirect one domain to another domain. For example, you can use this feature to temporarily redirect visitors while you disable a website for maintenance.<\/p>\n

When you configure a domain forwarder, the system assigns the next available address in the IP address pool as the forwarding IP address. After the system configures the forwarding IP address, you must<\/strong> properly configure the domain\u2019s DNS records. To do this, enter the forwarding IP address in the zone file\u2019s A record. Then, use this interface to redirect traffic from one domain to another.<\/p>\n

\n
Note:<\/div>\n
\n
    \n
  • \n

    Any server can host the forwarding domain. However, the domain\u2019s A record must<\/strong> point to the IP address of your domain forwarder.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    For permanent domain forwarding, read our Park a Domain<\/em> interface documentation. For information about setting up aliases, read our Aliases<\/em> interface documentation.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      File locations<\/h2>\n
