Route53 only for wildcard subdomain
- by Philippe Gerber
We recently moved our web application to AWS. One thing that is still managed by our old hoster is DNS.
OLD HOSTER
example.com. NS <Old hoster's name server>
example.com. A <ElasticIP on EC2 instance>
*.example.com. CNAME example.com.
...
I'm now trying to setup and play around with Route53 and use it for name resolution of our EC2 instances.
ROUTE53
web-01.aws.example.com. CNAME ec2-xx-xx-xx-xx.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com.
web-02.aws.example.com. CNAME ec2-xx-xx-xx-xx.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com.
...
Now my question: Is it possible to forward DNS queries for *.aws.example.com to Route53 (ns-xxxx.awsdns-59.co.uk.)? What kind of record would I have to add?
