Delegate Domains to Delegated Administrative Regions

If delegated administrative regions are configured, the upper-level administrative region must delegate sub-domains to the delegated administrative regions. Otherwise, the Oracle Names servers in the upper-level administrative region will assume authority over all sub-domains.

Once a domain is delegated, the Oracle Names servers in the current region will forward subsequent operations to the sub-region where the domain is administered by Oracle Names servers.

To delegate a domain:

1. In the navigator pane, expand Net8 Configuration > Oracle Names Servers.

2. Select the Oracle Names server.

3. From the list in the right pane, select Manage Data.

4. Select the Topology tab.

5. Choose Delegate Domain.

6. Enter the name of the sub-domain in the Domain Name field.

7. Enter the Oracle Names server that serves the domain in the Names Server Name field, and its protocol address in the Names Server Address field.

8. Choose Execute.

9. Choose File > Save Network Configuration.
