  4. Select the CNAME from the Type drop-down menu.

  5. Copy the address of your Dedicated Domain address from the Domains tab in Voluum and provide it into the  field.

    Caution

    Voluum Note: Currently, depending on the setup, you need to add either one CNAME record pointing to your dedicated domain (old setup) or two CNAME records pointing to Cloudfront records. Follow the in-panel instructions regarding which CNAME records to set up.

  6. Select the Custom time from the TTL (Time To Live, i.e. time to propagate all changes through the network) drop-down menu and set it to the lower value in the Seconds field, for example: "60" seconds, for faster DNS settings propagation.

  7. Click the Save button.

  8. The new CNAME record for your subdomain ("track") should pointi to your Voluum domain.
