DNS zone

Average processing time 1-2 minutes

Create and update a DNS zone to configure its integration with your existing DNS infrastructure.

Terraform doesn't have access to the zone resource configuration when processing the import. As such, Terraform will populate the contract attribute for that resource in your state after import, but it won’t populate the group attribute. Update the group locally and then run terraform apply to reconcile your configuration and state.

resource "akamai_dns_zone" "my-dns-zone" {
  contract = "C-0N7RAC7"
  zone     = "my-dns-zone.com"
  type     = "secondary"
  masters = [
    "1.2.3.4",
    "1.2.3.5",
  ]
  comment        = "My dns zone"
  group          = 12345
  sign_and_serve = false
  tsig_key {
    name      = "my-example.com"
    algorithm = "hmac-sha1"
    secret    = "aB1Cd23E4FGhij5klmnOPqRSTvw5y7xyZabCdeFgH8i90JKlMN1OpqrSTu2V3Wx+4y56ZAbcDefgh789iJkLm=="
  }
}

Arguments

Argument	Required	Description
`contract`	✔	Your contract ID.
`zone`	✔	The domain zone, encapsulating any nested subdomains.
`type`	✔	The zone type. It can be: `primary`, `secondary`, or `alias`. A `primary` zone's records are stored in the Akamai Portal. A `secondary` zone's records are stored on the customer's name servers. An `alias` zone enables you to duplicate the configuration of an existing zone.
`masters`		Required only for `secondary` zones. The IP addresses of the customer's name servers from which the zone data should be retrieved.
`comment`		A descriptive comment. You can add it when you review the change list to activate zone updates. If you don't provide any comments, it's filled out with a default value: `Managed by Terraform`.
`group`		The currently selected group ID.
`sign_and_serve`		Required only for `primary` and `secondary` zones. Indicates whether DNSSEC Sign and Serve is enabled. `true` to enable.
`sign_and_serve_algorithm`		The algorithm currently or last used by DNSSEC Sign and Serve. Possible values: `RSA_SHA1` `RSA_SHA256` `RSA_SHA512` `ECDSA_P256_SHA256` `ECDSA_P384_SHA384`
`end_customer_id`		A free-form identifier for the zone.
`target`		Required only for `alias` zones. The name of the zone whose configuration this zone will copy.
`tsig_key`		Required only for `secondary` zones. The TSIG Key used in secure zone transfers. If used, it requires these arguments: `name`. The key name in domain name format. `algorithm`. The hashing algorithm to encode the TSIG key's secret data. Possible values: `hmac-md5` `hmac-sha1` `hmac-sha224` `hmac-sha256` `hmac-sha384` `hmac-sha512` `HMAC-MD5.SIG-ALG.REG.INT` `secret`. A Base64-encoded string known between transfer endpoints.

Attributes

There is no default standard output. Upon creation, the last line of the process log contains a success message with the resource id.

Adding an output block returns the zone details you provided on create along with the computed attributes.

Attribute	Description
`version_id`	The ID of the most recently activated zone version.
`alias_count`	The number of zones of the `alias` type that point to this zone. Computed only for `primary` and `secondary`zones.
`activation_state`	The zone's activation status.
