Hello Rebecca,
The new portal allows members to manage their own DNS records. You
can also claim any existing DNS records under ampr.org in the
zonefile.
Why would the new portal system let people manipulate DNS records
for other people's allocations? That sounds like a very bad idea.
Option 2 (Recommended ONLY for certain use cases):
. . .
Once you have found your records, click on the "Claim" icon, which
will create a new ticket for an admin to process. Keep an eye out
for ticket updates, as the admin may wish to ask questions to
clarify your request. If the admin is happy with your request,
your request will be approved, and your DNS record will be
assigned to your account. You can view the record by selecting "My
records" from the "DNS" menu.
Who is this "admin"? Is this the regional AMPR subnet coordinator
that will review and bless this "DNS claim"?
I need to check out the new portal now that it's back up but were
all the old DNS records pulled into the portal system? I know at
least in my 44.4.0.0/16 zone, there are still some legacy DNS
entries that don't reflect to specific allocations that the old AMPR
portal had any record of. This all happened with a previous
regional coordinator and while I continue to try to contact these
people, it's very VERY slow going.
