Creating a DNS service record
The Hub or Clients will locate the Enterprise Server using DNS service during an automatic lookup for the
Enterprise Server. You may also use the manual lookup but it is highly recommended that you use DNS. If
you plan on providing the Enterprise Server hostname manually during Hub and Client installation, you can
skip this section.
When a DNS service record is used, the Hub or Client will look for the service named _uniteservice._tcp
within the DNS service records _uniteservice._tcp.example.com 86400 IN 0 5 443 uniteserver.example.com.
To add a DNS Service Record in Microsoft Windows:
 On your DNS server, open DNS Manager.
 Expand the Forward Lookup Zones (left pane).
 Right click on the zone and select "Other New Records..."
o In Select a resource record type: select Service Location (SRV) and select Create Record.
o For Service enter: _uniteservice
o For Protocol enter: _tcp
o For Port enter: 443
o Host offering this service: Enter the hostname/IP of the Enterprise server(s).
