Domains

The Domains page lets you register and verify the domain names your players use to connect to your network. Verified domains unlock hostname-based routing features like SNI routing.

Adding a domain

Click + Add Domain and enter your domain or subdomain — for example, play.example.com.

After adding it, OrbisManager gives you a DNS record to add to your domain's DNS settings. This is how OrbisManager proves you own the domain.

Verifying your domain

After adding a domain, you'll see the DNS verification instructions:

FieldWhat to do
TypeThe DNS record type (usually TXT)
NameWhere to add the record in your DNS settings
ValueThe value to paste into the DNS record

Add this record in your DNS provider (Cloudflare, GoDaddy, etc.), then click Verify.

DNS propagation takes time

After adding the DNS record, it can take a few minutes — or up to 24 hours — before it's visible worldwide. If verification fails, wait a bit and try again.

Domain status

StatusMeaning
✅ VerifiedDomain ownership confirmed. Ready to use in routing rules.
⏳ UnverifiedDNS record not yet detected. Verify when ready.

Using domains in routing

Once a domain is verified, you can use it as a condition in Connection Redirect Rules. For example:

  • Player connects via eu.example.com → route to EU server pool
  • Player connects via vip.example.com → redirect to VIP server

This gives you full control over the player experience based on which domain they use to connect.
