Locally managed CF tunnels and DNS
Hi
I'm trying to set up a server that can create embedded linux images with CF tunnels to host a website from each device.
What I'm currently doing is using go-API to create the credentials and installing it on the image - that works flawlessly. Now I'm looking into the DNS side of this, and each unit requires a dedicated DNS record to proxy to cfargotunnel.com which causes DNS propagation issues.
Can I do this with a single DNS record or at my server side? xxxx.example.com -> xxxx.cfargotunnel.com or example.com/xxxx -> xxxx.cfargotunnel.com.
xxxx.cfargotunnel.com seems to be inaccessible directly.
Best regards
Mark

You would need a DNS record of www.example.com -> <tunnel url>.
Can you elaborate?
I need multiple unique urls, possibly 100s
which type of DNS record can carry over the subdomain?
What do you mean by carry over the subdomain? Each URL will need to be a CNAME to the tunnel.
By "subdomain" i mean the tunnel ID as in TUNNELID.example.com -> TUNNELID.cfargotunnel.com (with access protection)
But if on CNAME record per tunnel is required, that is how it is. Thank you!
