Dyn DNS not resolving CNAME
Hi Im a total beginner and self-teached. Please be kind with me if its obvious everyone else.
I followed a tutorial and set my dyn DNS up accordingly (Screenshots). But the CNAME to my Dyn DNS A Record doesn't get resolved.
DIG commands:
#dig cname.domain.tld
...
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;cname.domain.tld. IN A
;; ANSWER SECTION:
cname.domain.tld. 0 IN CNAME dynamic4.
...
#dig dynamic4.domain.tld
...
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;dynamic4.domain.tld. IN A
;; ANSWER SECTION:
dynamic4.domain.tld. 235 IN A <my Router's IPv4-Address>
DNS Records in Cloudflare:

CNAME flattening is set to "flatten CNAME at apex". That is the only available option.
I hope that I have left in enough information while protecting my privacy.
Thanks for all Answers in advance.

DNS changes can take time to propagate, typically up to 48 hours. If your changes are recent, it might be worth waiting a bit longer and checking again.
Or
1. Ensure there are no typos in the DNS records.
2. Double-check that the nameserver settings at your domain registrar are correctly pointed to Cloudflare’s nameservers.
3. Revisit any CNAME settings to ensure that there is no inadvertent recursive CNAME pointing or conflicts.
final suggestion since you are a beginner. Look at the dns checker online tools like
1. DNS Checker
2. WhatsMyDNS
3.MXToolbox
