  2. support DNAME records (Non-Terminal DNS Name Redirection) - see description

    For information: A DNAME-record is used to map / rename an entire sub-tree of the DNS name space to another domain. It differs from the CNAME-record which maps only a single node of the name space.

    I would personally appreciate if the full range of records that are available are supported, but with people (especially clients) having multiple things bundled onto single domains into subdomains and correspondent subdirectories, it makes sense more than ever to accommodate these records as many other providers do.

  3. Add the ability to apply DNS Template to existing domains on Windows

    This feature exists on Linux. So it will be great to have the same on Windows as well. It will make it easier to manage DNS on servers with many domains.

  4. Raw SOA Editor

    I want to change the DNS-Editor to the Raw View like a Source Editor for HTML.

    Its way better to import dns from other providers to plesk with the raw soa file format if there are too much records to single add them via gui.

    Maybe a Button "Extended View" with default SOA Design

    $TTL 7200
    @ IN SOA ns1.your-server.de. postmaster.your-server.de. (
    2019101403 ; serial
    86400 ; refresh
    10800 ; retry
    3600000 ; expire
    86400 ) ; minimum

    @ IN NS ns3.second-ns.de.
    @ IN NS ns.second-ns.com.
    @ IN NS ns1.your-server.de.

    @ IN A 1.1.1.1
    www IN A 1.1.1.1

  5. Allow CNAME to point to another CNAME

    Allow CNAME records to point to another CNAME record. Currently it is not possible to do so in Plesk and shows the error:

    Error: Incorrect combination of DNS records is present in the DNS zone.

  7. Lock DNS records | Disable Reset to default

    We have the "dmarc"- record in our template having a placeholder for the value. At the time the Record "dmarc" was edited by adding the value, mostly every DNS record is no more in the state of the DNS template.

    Therefore it is important to have some policies:
    - The button "Reset to default" can be disabled on Admin and Reseller level.
    - The button "Master/*****" can be disabled. Usually this functionality is not needed.
    - For certain very important DNS setting, a "Lock" button might make sense. If applied, this record can not be edited anymore by…

  9. Add means to control which Master IP address (Private or Public) will be referenced on slave DNS servers

    Currently, If Public IP address is added on the Master DNS server under Tools & Settings > IP addresses, all new zones created afterwards will have Public IP address in .nzd/nzf file on the slave DNS server. In case of Google Cloud/AWS this might not be the desired behavior since they recommend to keep the DNS traffic on the private network. Some means of controlling which Master IP address is being referenced on the slave configuration is required.

  10. Add SMIMEA Record in DNS

    Add the SMIMEA record in the DNS-system.
    This is required for encrypted email communication.

    There is no need to set up an automatic system, just the option to create an individual record.

    The 63-character restriction must be removed, otherwise the hash of the address is too long and will be rejected.

  11. Cloudflare records exclusions

    A very cool feature would be to exclude individual records in the zone from sync / export to Cloudflare and the choice by auto-update to only update / create records without removing whole Cloudflare zone.

    In my particular scenario I am serving mts-sts. via Cloudflare worker. Everytime Plesk update DNS zone on Cloudflare the particular mta-sts. record is deleted. This record can not be created in Plesk, because it is a worker trigger.

  12. Allow to postpone changes to DNS zone

    Sometimes it is not convenient to reload all zones on every change, so it would be helpful to have an option to apply changes either immediately, or at a designated time.

  13. restrict to edit SOA records for subscription, but allow to manage DNS records

    It requires either limit user's ability to change the DNS zone timers (TTL, refresh, expiry...) or to limit them to a preset minimum, while still being able to edit the domain's records.

    A differential report to compare the DNS template to all or multiple domains on a server to see only items that are "differences" or exceptions to the template, not every DNS entry for a domain.

  15. Hidden Primary DNS without NS RR

    in Plesk it is impossible to configure the SOA Primary Nameserver without a NS RR.

    The SOA template should support Hidden Primary NameServer and the Zone file generation should always use the Hidden Primary NameServer in the Domain SOA entry.

    Example:
    @ IN SOA ns1.hidden-primary.tld ...
    ...
    domain.tld. IN NS ns1.secondary.tld.
    domain.tld. IN NS ns2.secondary.tld.

    Thank you for your interesting idea! While this is a request for a rarely used DNS record, it still makes sense to enable this record type at least for users who want to link their website to a specific geolocation. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

    Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

  17. Reset DNS record to default value from DNS template

    The ability to reset a specific record to the default value from the DNS template. We are currently only able to reset the whole domain.

    I'm also missing a column in the dns records overview, displaying which records are default and which are customized. We have to guess at this point which ones are altered.

  19. In the "Domain DNS settings" section, you need to add the ability to temporarily disable records.

    Good afternoon. In the "Domain DNS settings" section, you need to add the ability to temporarily disable records.
    There is a general list of all records, there is also a checkbox with which you can select the desired lines. By selecting rows through the checkbox, we can only delete in bulk.
    Please add the ability to temporarily disable the necessary records during the mass selection of rows through the checkbox. Well, maybe they would just be highlighted somehow or vice versa would be gray, which would mean that they are disabled. Also, if you select these disabled, you could re-enable…

  20. DNS Acl removal via CLI

    Meanwhile it's possible to add DNS ACL via CLI:
    plesk bin server_dns -u -add-acl 192.0.2.78,192.0.2.0/24

    There are no native tools in CLI for removing it.

    Adding such feature would be great.
