Edit a DS record

Edit your existing DS records if you need to make changes to the current settings. You can edit DS records on domains that are registered with 123 Reg but are not using 123 Reg nameservers and have DNSSEC set up through your DNS provider.

1. Sign in to your 123 Reg Domain Portfolio. (Need help logging in? Find your username or password.)
2. Select an individual domain to access the Domain Settings page.
   
3. Select DNS and then select DS Records.
   
4. Select Edit next to the DS record.
5. Edit the details for your DS record.
   
   • Key Tag: The identification number of the DS record, between 1 and 65536.
   • Algorithm: Choose an algorithm from the available options.
   • Digest Type: Choose 1 or 2 from the menu.
   • Digest: A string of alpha-numeric characters.
6. Select Save to add your DS record.
Note: If you get an error when saving your DS record, verify that your entry is correct with your DNS provider. You can't save incorrect DS records.

Most DNS updates take effect within an hour but could take up to 48 hours to update globally.
