Proxy and DNS configuration

mm201 edited this page Dec 9, 2021 · 5 revisions

Ever since ndsconstraint happened, there have been several different proxies and DNS servers that all try to connect to PCN but many of them have wrong/incomplete DNS settings. I hope to clear things up here.

For all columns marked proxy, please set the DNS entry for origin host to the IP address of your proxy, and add a rule to proxy traffic to destination host. (For SSL proxies, you must present the same SSL certificate used by nas.nintendowifi.net on your proxy and enable session resumption with the maximum timeout possible.)

For the columns marked DNS, do one of two things. Preferably, add a CNAME record aliasing origin host to destination host. Popular software like dnsmasq doesn't support CNAME records, however, so you can instead add an A record directing origin host to the listed IP address. Please be aware that the IP address isn't guaranteed to remain the same.
