Ownership Verification
Applicable Scenarios
When your site/domain name is connected to EdgeOne for the first time, in order to ensure that you are the owner of the currently accessed site/domain name, we need you to verify the ownership of the site/domain name.
Note:
This operation is only required in CNAME connection. If your site is accessed in NS mode, you can directly switch the DNS server to EdgeOne to complete the ownership verification.
Differences Between Domain and Site Verification
Assume that you have domain names
a.example.com
, b.example.com
, c.example.com
and the site you connected is example.com
.Siteverification: If you have permission to configure DNS root domain resolution or root name server, use this method to reduceoperating costs.
Once yourownership of the site is verified by EdgeOne, you can directly add itssubdomain names
a.example.com
, b.example.com
, c.example.com
.Domainverification: If your company is a multi-levelbusiness or provides domain operations and maintenance and you only havepermission to configure DNS resolution and the origin server for the subdomainnames, you can skip verification when connecting the site. However, all itssubdomain names need to be verified before being added.
Using domainverification requires you to verify
a.example.com
, b.example.com
and c.example.com
before connection.Once yourownership of these domain names is verified, you can directly add all theirsubdomain names. For instance, when
a.example.com
is verified, test.a.example.com
can be directly added.Steps to Verify the Site or Domain Name Ownership
The verification steps of site ownership are the same as those of domain name ownership. The following example describes how to verify the site ownership.
1. On the Verify your site page, select DNS verification to obtain the host record, record type, and record value required for ownership verification.
2. Log in to the console of the DNS service provider of the domain name and add a TXT record for the verification of the site ownership. The following examples describe how to add the TXT record in the console of different DNS service providers.
a. Log in to the DNSPod console and click My Domains in the left sidebar. On the page that appears, click the target domain name to enter its configuration page.
b. On the domain name configuration page, click Add Record to add a DNS record for the ownership verification of the domain name.
c. Enter the record type, host record, and record value obtained in Step 1 .
Parameter | Description |
Record Type | TXT |
Host | edgeonereclaim |
Split Zone | Default |
Text content | Enter the record value provided by EdgeOne |
TTL | 600 |
d. Click OK.
b. On the Manage DNS page, find the target domain name, and click Configure in the Actions column to go to the DNS Settings page.
c. Click Add Record to add a DNS record for ownership verification of the domain name.
d. Enter the record type, host record, and record value obtained in Step 1.
Parameter | Description |
Type | TXT |
Host | edgeonereclaim |
ISP Line | Default |
Value | Enter the record value provided by EdgeOne |
TTL | 10 minutes |
d. Click OK.
a. Log in to the Godaddy Domain Portfolio console.
b. On the Portfolio page, click the target domain name to go to the Domain Settings page.
c. Click Add to add a DNS record for ownership verification of the domain name.
d. Enter the record type, host record, and record value obtained in Step 1.
Parameter | Description |
Type | TXT |
Name | edgeonereclaim |
Value | Enter the record value provided by EdgeOne |
TTL | Default |
d. Click Add Record.
3. Verify whether the current TXT record is effective by the following methods:
Open the command prompt and run the
nslookup -qt=txt edgeonereclaim.example.com
command. Then, check the TXT record information of the domain. If the TXT record is the same as that provided by Step 1, the TXT record is effective.
Open the terminal and run the
dig txt edgeonereclaim.example.com
command. Then, check the TXT record information of the domain. If the TXT record is the same as that provided by Step 1, the TXT record is effective.
4. After the TXT record takes effect, click Verify.
1. On the Verify your site page, select File verification.
2. The following examples describe how to perform file verification on Windows and Linux.
1. Go to the root directory of the server and create the verification directory
.well-known/teo-verification
.2. Click the file URL in Step 2 to get the verification file and upload it to the verification directory.
3. Copy the URL in Step 3 to your browser and make sure that the resource is accessible.
4. Click Verify.
1. Open a command window and get to the web server's root directory.
2. Copy the code in Step 2 to the command window and run it.
3. Copy the URL in Step 3 to your browser and make sure that the resource is accessible.
4. Click Verify.
