# DNS updates

## Steps

1. Add a DNS redirect from a sub-domain of the federated domain to point to the PingFederate server so that `<sub-domain>.<federated_domain_name>` points to `<PingFederate_domain_name_or_IP>` where `<sub-domain>` is a unique identifier for the PingFederate server.

   For example, redirect `pf.myfederateddomain.com` to `pfnode.mycompany.com` where `pfnode.mycompany.com` resolves to the PingFederate server.

2. To assist in verification of the domain, add a TXT record to the DNS settings of the federated domain. Insert the domain label prefix recorded recorded in the [Add federated domain](pf_office365_connector_add_federated_domain.html) step where indicated below.

   ```
   type: TXT, alias/host name: @, destination/points to address: MS=<domain_label_prefix>, ttl: 1hour
   ```
