Simple DNS Plus API for .NET and COM
The "Simple DNS Plus API for .NET and COM" is a code library which greatly simplifies and streamlines programming with DNS data. It makes it possible to deal with DNS data as simple objects and eliminates the need to work with and understand the intricacies of DNS master files (a.k.a. zone files).
This can be using from any .NET or COM application or web-site including ASP.NET, classic ASP, PHP, VB.NET, C#, Delpi, VBScript, JScript, etc.
It can be used on a separate computer (controlling Simple DNS Plus remotely), and is therefore available as a separate download from here: sdnsapi-setup.exe (498 KB)
For more details, see the included help file, also available on-line.
HTTP API
Simple DNS Plus can be prompted through HTTP to perform various actions - either with a browser or from any program/script which can communicate through HTTP.
It is also possible to manipulate DNS zone and record data this way, but this is much more complicated and requires a lot more code compared to using the API for .NET and COM (see above).
For details, see How to use HTTP commands in the Simple DNS Plus help file and KB1135.
Command line options
Simple DNS Plus can be prompted to perform various actions from the command line (DOS prompt).
You can reload/unload zone files and TSIG keys, and clear the DNS cache.
