Creating a subdomain for email marketing

To create a subdomain of an existing domain that Unica can use for email marketing activities you must delegate Unica as the DNS provider, also referred to as the nameserver provider, for the subdomain name that you want to use for email marketing.

To delegate Unica as the nameserver provider, your information technology department must add the following records to delegate the nameservers for Unica as the nameservers for the new subdomain. The exact syntax depends on your nameserver technology.

Subdomain list and related settings
Subdomain Name
<Subdomain_name>.	48600	IN	NS	ns1.softlayer.com.
<Subdomain_name>.	48600	IN	NS	ns2.softlayer.com.

Note: The trailing dot at the end of the domain names above is essential.

Be careful to make this change ONLY for the subdomain name that you want to use for email marketing. Do not alter other subdomain names that you control. Pay particular attention to this if the difference between this subdomain and your other registered domain and subdomain names is slight.

After you are notified that these nameserver delegation changes are complete, please notify Unica so that we can verify the changes and continue with the provisioning of your account.
