[AusNOG] AWS Support

Just for clarity there are other ways of managing route53 records, aside from the ones provided below. Several orchestrators and a couple of DNS management tools can automate and change route53 zones (add/delete/etc). 

 

However you need the admin account associated with the records to make changes regardless of the method.

Someone will be paying for the AWS account, which should get you started in terms of account number with AWS. As for administering Route53, yep, this needs to be done through the console, or via powershell and/or r53cli (if you're feeling adventurous). Either way you will need access to the AWS account the zones are hosted in...

(I spend far too much time looking at Route53)

Hi Paul,

 

For what I understand you don't have access to the AWS console where that domain is registered.

If you want to make any DNS changes someone needs to find those credentials, otherwise I don't see how you're gonna do it.

 

As a last resort (and I don't think it's the best approach), the client goes to his domain registrar and changes his NS records to another route 53/DNS provider's Name Servers.

 

Good luck.

 

Cheers,

Jason

Afternoon All,

 

I have a bit of a tricky one. I have a client who has their DNS hosted with Route 53. The client has changed a few IT providers they don't know which account was setup (seems that it wasn't a generic admin@)

 

Is anyone able to point me to someone or something that might be able to get me access to their DNS to make some adjustments?

 

Thanks in advanced

 

Paul
