Custom domain records

Custom domain records let admin users with sufficient permissions define fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) and assign them to static IP addresses. These records are added to the DNS managed by Coro and are used in DNS filtering as part of Secure Web Gateway (SWG). This makes it easier to access specific devices, like printers or local servers, by a recognizable domain name instead of an IP address.

For example, instead of remembering 192.168.50.25, you can configure:

printer.company.local = 192.168.50.25

Custom domain records are added to the DNS provided by Coro and used only by devices protected by the Coro Agent and SWG. They do not replace or modify your external DNS configuration.

Custom domain record requirements

Each custom domain must:

  • Be unique per workspace : You can’t reuse the same domain across workspaces.
  • Include a top-level domain (TLD) : A domain such as printer is invalid. Use formats such as printer.company or printer.company.local .
  • Map to a single IP address : Each domain maps to one IPv4 address.
  • Use IPv4 only : IPv6 is not supported.
note

You can add as many subdomains as needed to each custom domain.

Managing custom domains

From the Custom domain DNS section of SWG, you can view, add, and remove domain-to-IP mappings.

To access the Custom domain DNS section:

  1. Sign in to the Coro console .
  2. Go to Control Panel > Network > SWG :

    SWG screen

  3. Locate the Custom domain DNS section:

Viewing existing domain records

Coro lists all existing custom domain records in the Custom domain DNS list, which shows the:

  • Domain : Fully qualified domain name (FQDN)
  • IP address : Assigned IP address
  • Date added : Date the custom domain was added

Use the search field to locate a domain by name or IP address.
