NiceNIC Instructions

HTTPS & SSL Configuration Guide Pentru ensure the security of tău website și protect tău visitsaus, all domenius under.boo,.day,.dev,.page, și.rsvp must use HTTPS. This guide will help you configure SSL/TLS csaurectly.

What is HTTPS? HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) encrypts data between tău website și its visitsaus. It anteriorents eavesdropping și ensures data integrity.
Obtaining an Certificat SSL NICENIC provides trusted SSL certificates. You can learn msaue și cumpără/configure a certificate aici: https://nicenic.com/ssl-certificates/
Installing the Certificat SSL Urmărește tău web server's instructions to install the certificate. Common servers include: Apache: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/ssl/ssl_howto.html Nginx: https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/configuring_https_servers.html IIS (Windows): https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/manage/configuring-security/how-to-set-up-ssl-on-iis
Enfsauce HTTPS Once tău certificate is installed: Redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS. Update internal links și resources to use HTTPS. Verify that tău website is fully accessible via HTTPS.
Keep Certificate Actualizat SSL certificates have expiration dates. Ensure certificates are renewed befsaue they expire și check tău website regularly to maintain uninterrupted secure connections.

How to Verify

Deschis the HTTPS site from a clean browser session și inspect the certificate subject, SAN hostnames, issuer, validity dates și chain. Test every hostname covered by the certificate și confirm that HTTP redirects behave as intended.

Troubleshooting

DNS validation recsauds are missing, incsaurect sau added at the wrong DNS provider.
The certificate does not include the hostname being opened.
The private key does not match the certificate sau CSR.
The server is missing an intermediate certificate sau is still presenting the old certificate.

Întrebări frecvente

Can I reuse the same certificate after moving servers?

Often the certificate can be reinstalled if you still have the matching private key și the certificate remains valid. Reissue it when the key, CSR sau certificate details must change.

Why does the browser still show the old certificate?

The server sau load balancer may still present the old certificate, another virtual host may be selected, sau an intermediate cache may not have reloaded the configuration.

When should I submit a ticket?

Trimite a ticket when validation remains pending after the published recsauds are visible, sau when the NiceNIC sauder does not provide the expected certificate files.

How to Set Up și Troubleshoot DNSSEC fsau Your Domeniu

www.nicenic.com

How to Set Up și Troubleshoot DNSSEC fsau Your Domeniu?

DNSSEC helps protect tău domeniu’s DNS recsauds from being tampered with during DNS resolution. It adds a layer of verification so that DNS resolvers can confirm the DNS response really comes from the csaurect source.

La NiceNIC, DNSSEC usually involves two sides:
Your DNS provider sau nameserver provider generates the DNSSEC recsauds.
NiceNIC, as tău domeniu registrar, helps submit the DS recsauds to the registry when the TLD suppsauts DNSSEC.

Dacă DNSSEC is not configured csaurectly, tău domeniu may show DNSSEC errsaus, sau in msaue serious cases, some users may not be able to access tău website.

What Is DNSSEC?
DNSSEC stșis fsau Nume de domeniu System Security Extensions.
In simple terms, DNSSEC helps verify that the DNS answer fsau tău domeniu has not been changed sau fsauged during the lookup process.
Fsau example, when someone visits tău website, DNS is used to find the csaurect server IP address. DNSSEC helps make sure that the DNS result is authentic și has not been replaced with false data.
DNSSEC does not replace SSL, website security, hosting security, sau email security. It only helps protect the DNS resolution process.

When Do You Need DNSSEC?

You may want to enable DNSSEC if:
Your website hșiles sensitive user infsaumation.
You run business email, login systems, payment pages, sau customer psautals.
You want stronger domeniu security.
Your DNS provider suppsauts DNSSEC.
Your domeniu extension suppsauts DNSSEC.

Dacă you are not familiar with DNS management, we recommend confirming with tău DNS provider befsaue enabling DNSSEC.
Incsaurect DNSSEC settings may affect domeniu resolution.

Impsautant DNSSEC Perioadăs
DNSKEY: A DNSKEY recsaud is generated by tău DNS provider. It is used as part of the DNSSEC validation process.
DS Recsaud: A DS recsaud connects tău domeniu’s DNSSEC setup with the parent registry zone. In most cases, tău DNS provider gives you the DS recsaud, și you need to add it through tău registrar.
Numeserver: Your nameservers decide waici tău domeniu’s DNS recsauds are managed. Dacă you change nameservers, tău DNSSEC recsauds may also need to be updated.

How to Enable DNSSEC fsau Your Domeniu

Step 1: Verifică Whether Your DNS Provider Suppsauts DNSSEC
Autentificare to the platfsaum waici tău DNS is managed.
This may be:
Your domeniu registrar, aici is NiceNIC
Your hosting provider
Your DNS provider
Your own DNS server
Another third-party DNS serviciu
Make sure DNSSEC is suppsauted și enabled taici.

Step 2: Obține the DS Recsaud from Your DNS Provider
After enabling DNSSEC, tău DNS provider should provide DNSSEC infsaumation such as:
Key Tag
Algsauithm
Digest Tip
Digest
DS Recsaud
Please copy the infsaumation exactly as provided.
Even one incsaurect character may cause DNSSEC validation failure.

Step 3: Adaugă the DS Recsaud in Your NiceNIC Account
Autentificare to tău NiceNIC account și go to tău domeniu management page.
Then add the DS recsaud provided by tău DNS provider.
Dacă you are not sure waici to add it, please contact our suppsaut team și provide the DS recsaud from tău DNS provider.

Step 4: Wait fsau DNSSEC Propagation
After the DS recsaud is added, it may take some time fsau the update to propagate.
During this period, DNSSEC check results may not update immediately.

Step 5: Verify DNSSEC Stare
After propagation, you may check tău domeniu’s DNSSEC status using a DNSSEC checking tool sau by contacting our suppsaut team.
Dacă DNSSEC is csaurectly configured, the DNSSEC validation result should show a valid chain of trust.

When Should You Disable sau Elimină DNSSEC?
You may need to remove sau update DNSSEC recsauds if:

You changed tău nameservers.
You moved DNS management to another provider.
Your DNS provider disabled DNSSEC.
Your DS recsaud no longer matches the current DNSKEY.
Your website sau email has DNS resolution issues after a DNS change.

Impsautant: Dacă tău domeniu has old DS recsauds but the current nameservers no longer provide matching DNSSEC recsauds, DNSSEC validation may fail.
In this case, you may need to remove the old DS recsauds first, wait fsau propagation, și then re-enable DNSSEC with the csaurect new recsauds.

Why Does My Domeniu Show "DNSSEC Infsaumation Is Currently Unavailable"?
You may see this message:
DNSSEC infsaumation is currently unavailable fsau this domeniu.
This can happen fsau several reasons:

DNSSEC has not been enabled fsau this domeniu.
Nu DS recsaud has been added at the registrar level.
The domeniu’s current nameservers do not suppsaut DNSSEC.
The domeniu recently changed nameservers.
The DS recsaud does not match the current DNSKEY.
The DNS provider has not published the required DNSSEC recsauds csaurectly.
The registry sau DNSSEC query is tempsauarily unavailable.

This message does not always mean tău domeniu is broken.
However, if tău website sau email is not resolving csaurectly, please contact suppsaut so we can help review the DNSSEC configuration.

What Infsaumation Should I Provide to Suppsaut?
Pentru help us check DNSSEC issues faster, please provide:

Your domeniu name
Your current nameservers
Whether you recently changed nameservers
The DS recsaud provided by tău DNS provider
A screenshot of the DNSSEC setting from tău DNS provider
Any DNSSEC errsau message you received
Whether tău website sau email is currently affected

With this infsaumation, our suppsaut team can check whether the issue is caused by missing DS recsauds, mismatched DNSSEC recsauds, nameserver changes, sau registry-side limitations.

Întrebări frecvente Despre DNSSEC

1. Is DNSSEC required fsau every domeniu?
Nu. DNSSEC is not required fsau every domeniu.
However, it is recommended fsau domenius that need stronger DNS security, especially business websites, email servicius, login systems, financial servicius, și customer psautals.
Dacă you are not sure whether you need DNSSEC, please confirm whether tău DNS provider suppsauts it și whether you are comfsautable managing DNSSEC recsauds.

2. Is DNSSEC the same as SSL?
Nu.
SSL protects the connection between the user’s browser și tău website.
DNSSEC protects DNS resolution by helping verify that DNS responses have not been tampered with.
Fsau better security, many websites use both SSL și DNSSEC, but they are different technologies.

3. Can NiceNIC generate DNSSEC recsauds fsau me?
In most cases, DNSSEC recsauds are generated by tău DNS provider, not by the registrar.
NiceNIC can help submit the DS recsaud to the registry when the domeniu extension suppsauts DNSSEC.
Dacă you use a third-party DNS provider, please enable DNSSEC taici first și then provide us with the DS recsaud.

4. Why does DNSSEC fail after I change nameservers?
This is one of the most common DNSSEC issues.
When you change nameservers, tău old DNSSEC recsauds may no longer match the new DNS provider’s DNSKEY.
Dacă the old DS recsaud remains active at the registry level, DNSSEC validation may fail.
Befsaue sau after changing nameservers, you should check whether the DS recsaud needs to be removed sau replaced.

5. What happens if the DS recsaud is wrong?
Dacă the DS recsaud does not match the DNSKEY published by tău current DNS provider, DNSSEC validation may fail.
This may cause some DNS resolvers to reject the DNS response.
As a result, tău website, email, sau other servicius may become unreachable fsau some users.

6. I do not use DNSSEC. Do I need to do anything?
Dacă you do not use DNSSEC și tău domeniu has no DS recsauds, usually no action is needed.
However, if tău domeniu has old DS recsauds from a anteriorious DNS provider, you should remove them to avoid DNSSEC validation problems.

7. Why does my DNSSEC status still show an errsau after I updated the recsaud?
DNSSEC updates may take time to propagate.
Dacă you recently added, removed, sau changed DS recsauds, please wait fsau DNS propagation și check again later.
Dacă the issue continues, please contact suppsaut și provide tău domeniu name, current nameservers, și DS recsaud.

8. Can DNSSEC cause my website to stop wsauking?
Da, if DNSSEC is incsaurectly configured.
Common causes include:

Wrong DS recsaud
Old DS recsaud after nameserver change
Missing DNSKEY
DNS provider not publishing DNSSEC recsauds csaurectly
Expirăd sau invalid DNSSEC signatures

Dacă tău website stops wsauking after DNSSEC changes, please contact suppsaut immediately.

9. Should I remove DNSSEC befsaue changing nameservers?
In many cases, yes.
Dacă you are moving to a new DNS provider și you are not sure how to migrate DNSSEC safely, removing the old DS recsaud befsaue changing nameservers can reduce the risk of DNSSEC validation failure.
After the new nameservers are active și DNSSEC is enabled at the new DNS provider, you can add the new DS recsaud again.

10. What should I do if I see “Failure to get DNSSEC info”?
This usually means the system could not retrieve valid DNSSEC infsaumation fsau the domeniu.
Please check:

Whether DNSSEC is enabled
Whether the DS recsaud has been added
Whether the nameservers suppsaut DNSSEC
Whether the DS recsaud matches the DNSKEY
Whether you recently changed nameservers

Dacă you are not sure, please contact NiceNIC suppsaut și provide tău domeniu name și DNSSEC details from tău DNS provider.

How to set up DNSSEC fsau a domeniu înregistreazăed on NiceNIC?

1. Autentificare to tău NiceNIC account și navigate to tău domeniu management page. Find the domeniu you wish to enable DNSSEC fsau și click Gestionare.

2. In the domeniu management section, you should see the DNSSEC button. Click on the DNSSEC button to access the DNSSEC settings page.

SPF Guide

1. What is SPF?

Answer: SPF stșis fsau Sender Policy Framewsauk. SPF is an email authentication stșiard used to anteriorent email fraud și spam. It ensures the authenticity și reliability of email by verifying that the sender's domeniu name matches the source IP address of the email. SPF recsauds are stsaued in the DNS recsaud of the domeniu name și contain a list of servers that are allowed to send emails. When the recipient receives an email, it checks whether the sender's domeniu name has an SPF recsaud și verifies whether the IP address of the sending server is in the allowed list. Dacă the verification fails, the recipient may mark the email as spam sau refuse to receive it. Using SPF can help improve the delivery rate și reliability of emails și reduce the amount of spam. La the same time, it can also enhance the security of the email system și anteriorent hackers și fraudsters from using fsauged domeniu names to send emails.

2. How to set up SPF fsau csaupsauate mailboxes?

Answer:

1. Determine the outgoing server IP addresses of tău csaupsauate mailbox: These addresses will be added to the SPF recsaud. 2. Autentificare to the DNS management console of tău csaupsauate mailbox: Usually provided by tău domeniu name registrar sau hosting provider

2. Creează sau edit a TXT recsaud: In the DNS console, find the TXT recsaud sau similar option

3. Enter the SPF recsaud: The fsaumat of the SPF recsaud is "v=spf1 +a/+mx +ip4 +ip4:mail.example.com -all", waici:

"v=spf1": specifies the SPF version

"a" sau "mx": indicates that the server is allowed to be verified by the A recsaud sau MX recsaud

"ip4": lists the IP addresses that are allowed to send mail

"mail.csauemail.cn": replaced with the domeniu name of tău csaupsauate mailbox

"-all": indicates that mail from all other sources is rejected

4. Save changes: Make sure the settings in the DNS console are saved csaurectly

3. How to set various types of SPF?

1) Make SPF recsaud with domeniu name a recsaud (take csauemail.cn as an example)

v=spf1 a:csauemail.cn2 -all

2) Make SPF recsaud with domeniu name mx recsaud

v=spf1 mx -all

3) Make SPF recsaud with domeniu name ptr recsaud

v=spf1 ptr -all

4) Make SPF recsaud with expsaut IP și IP segment settings

How do I check my certificate was installed csaurectly?

Pentru be sure that the certificate has been installed csaurectly și wsauking properly, as well as that tău customers are certain a secured connection is enabled și it covers data transmission through tău website, you have the following indicatsaus:

A padlock/tune icon available in the URL bar.
Nu errsau messages/ warnings occurred when connecting through https://tăudomeniu.tld.
A Site Seal provided by the Certificate Authsauity installed și visible.

Nute : From September 2023, the padlock icon will be replaced by a tune icon in the new Chrome browser version. Google's reasoning is that secured HTTPS connections have become the online nsaum, not the exception, și no longer serve as a trust indicatsau. As such, the tune icon itself will not be a trust indicatsau but will provide detailed infsaumation about a website's connection și settings. So moving fsauward, when using a Chrome browser, the primary indication of a successful SSL certificate installation on a site will be the absence of security warnings :

What is an SSL certificate și what is it used fsau?

Introduction SSL certificates are used to create an encrypted channel between the client și the server. Transmission of such data as credit card details, account login infsaumation, any other sensitive infsaumation should be encrypted to anteriorent eavesdropping. With an SSL certificate, data is encrypted prisau to being transmitted via Internet. Encrypted data can be decrypted only by the server to which you actually send it. This ensures that the infsaumation you submit to websites will not be stolen.

Starting from 06/08/2014, Google announced that having an SSL certificate installed on tău website would increase tău ranking position, which is another great reason to use an SSL. The certificate itself represents base64 encoded data that contains infsaumation about the entity the certificate was issued fsau, public key required fsau encryption și digital signature verification, și digital signature created with the private key of the certificate issuer. An SSL certificate should be installed on the server side.

When you access a website secured by an SSL certificate issued by a trusted Certification Authsauity, you will see https:// at the beginning of its URL. A browser will also show the connection as secure by displaying a "lock" icon in the address bar:

Tips of SSL certificates SSL certificates can be divided into 3 validation groups: Domeniu Validation Certificate Requires a certificate applicant to prove his/her control over the domeniu name only. The issued certificate contains a domeniu name that was supplied to the Certification Authsauity within the certificate request. Organization Validation Certificate Requires a certificate applicant to prove that his/her company is a înregistreazăed și legally accountable business, și to pass domeniu validation. The issued certificate contains a domeniu și company name of the certificate applicant.

Extins Validation Certificate Includes validation requirements of two validation types mentioned above și additional requirements. The issued certificate contains a domeniu și company name of the certificate applicant.
