values and server settings appear. You can configure the values for the
following parameters. The parameters are explained in the following
paragraphs.
• Domain administrator email address (optional)
• Refresh interval (in seconds)
• Retry interval (in seconds)
• Expire interval (in seconds)
• Time-to-live (TTL) interval (in seconds)
3. Click Save .
