Greetings! My name is Edward and I’m a network engineer starting the CRC! I was wondering if you all could help me or point me to the right thread where this question has been asked before.

So I purchased a domain from Cloudflare and I've updated the Cloudflare records with two CNAME records for my domain name and four NS records for the
four Azure nameservers that were listed in my Azure portal. I've also created a DNS zone in Azure portal for my website.

For some reason, whenever I do an nslookup, it still has Cloudflare listed as my nameserver. I've waited 24 hours for the DNS servers to propagate but still not dice. Can someone let me know what I'm missing?

#

Im going to attach a few images to this post

#

Maybe I need to create the CNAME records in Azure also? I see “+ Record Set” at the top of DNS zones. I’ll try that right quick.

#

I also just noticed there’s a “.” after the nameservers in Azure and I don’t think that was included in my Cloudflare configuration. Once I pressed “Copy to clipboard”, the copy and paste included the period. On the Microsoft tutorial, the periods weren’t included.

just to clarify, what end result were you going for in terms of how users dns resolve for your site/navigate to it? were you planning to have users go from cloudflare proxy --> azure cdn --> your website? was your intention to buy the domain from cloudflare but then just manage the dns in azure?

#

as a side note, i did actually do a version of what you seem to be doing... but with AWS. so my beginning implementation would go through 2 CDNs: cloudflare --> cloudfront (aws cdn) --> aws website... i ended up just cutting out cloudfront because it simplified things and i didnt really see the benefit of having 2 CDNs
