DNS

Authoritative DNS across the fleet

Heimdall is Unicorn Panel’s own in-house authoritative DNS server, built into the panel. Manage every record type, replicate across multiple hosts for geographically diverse answers, and let the panel stamp records automatically as you provision sites.

Records & replication

Every record type, on every nameserver

Manage A, AAAA, MX, TXT, CNAME, SRV, CAA, NS, and PTR records per zone. Multi-host replication (DNS1, DNS2, or more) means customers get real authoritative answers from geographically diverse hosts.

  • Full per-record management across all record types
  • Multi-host replication for authoritative redundancy
  • Optional DNSSEC support
  • DNS preflight runs before every SSL issuance

Automation

Records that take care of themselves

Auto-record creation

Creating a website on a panel-managed domain stamps the A record automatically, with no manual zone editing.

Sub-site dedup

Adding blog.example.com when example.com already exists won’t re-add the apex A record.

Query metrics

Heimdall surfaces query rates per zone and cache-hit ratios right in the panel.

Authoritative DNS without a separate dashboard.
