Question

[Feature request] CAA DNS record (Certification Authority Authorization)

Posted January 23, 2017 3.8k

Security DNS

Would it be possible to support the CAA DNS record?

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6844

This currently shows up as a notice if missing when doing Qualy’s SSL Server Test.

I just ran a test at https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html everything came back great except CAA record missing. Went to add it on digital ocean networking tab… No option to add it.

This would be a good addition

You may want to submit this to the feedback channel:

They check it frequently, so that’d definitely be where I’d get that posted.
