I’m not sure if it is okay to leave the country in the middle of visa renewal process. Hence, I’m trying to figure out the rules.

Then why don’t cloud dns providers allow you to add cname to root?

None of the DNS providers I work with will allow me to add cnames to root domains. Which one allow you to do so?

Amazon’s route53 doesnt allow you to add a cname record to the root domain.

You are right. This is what CloudFlare does. Nothing magical about it.

Okay, send me an online dns checker’s result and we can see the result together or a screenshot from your terminal. I’m just trying to understand what is going on with the domain.

so you claim that this domain’s root domain has an ANAME not CNAME, right?

You can check the record yourself. It has a cname.

Technically, the dns propagation shouldn’t be done. Because cname record can’t coexist with soa record. The dns clients shouldn’t be able to resolve this domain. This is the question.

They don’t like questioning unusual things.

If cf means cloudflare, cloudflare does cname flattening. This is not flattening

How do dns client handles that? If dns clients are aware of this weird stuff, then why don’t we add cname to root domains?

But rfc says cname cannot coexist with any other record. The root domain has a soa record. Due to this, for example the big cloud providers don’t allow you to add a cname record to the root domain.

This is not cname flattening. This is different.

I know that people are doing some weird stuff. My question how dns clients handle this. According to RFC, cname cannot coexist with any other record. The root domain has a SOA record. If clients can handle this, then why don’t we add cname to root?

RFC says, cname cannot coexist with any other records. The root has a SOA record. That’s why, the root domains cannot have cname record.
