Add a domain list

Add a domain list to use in your DNS Protection policies.

You can add a maximum of 100 domain lists to DNS Protection.

To add a domain list, do as follows:

  1. Go to My Products > DNS Protection > Domains.
  2. Click Add domain list.
  3. Enter a name and description.

  4. In Domains, type in, or paste your domains.

    Press Enter or Tab after you add each item, even if you're adding a single item. If copying and pasting, ensure the copied list has a line break between each item. Maximum domains: 1000.

    DNS Protection matches all the sub-domains associated with the domains you specify. So, if you block this list in a policy, DNS Protection blocks all sub-domains associated with all domains in the list.

    Note

    To match sub-domains, use the format: example.com. Using www.example.com doesn't include sub-domains. For example, using example.com includes www.example.com, images.example.com, and more.images.example.com. However, using www.example.com doesn't include example.com, images.example.com, or more.images.example.com.

  5. Click Save.
