#577 Web UI for DNS does not allow editing records
Closed: Fixed None Opened 13 years ago by sgallagh.

DNS UI screen does not allow editing DNS entries only add and delete.


Do delete-add under the hood but provide edit capability.

This is how it was designed. TO change the A record, you would delte the old, and add a new entry. There is no dnsrecord-mod command.

There doesn't need to be a dnsrecord-mod command. The WebUI should allow editing and under the hood perform a dnsrecord-delete and dnsrecord-add.

Forcing the user to manually delete and then add a record is error-prone and ugly.

No we decided not do this. It will be CLI change and new command in 2.1

This ticket depends on #1137 - implementation of CLI command supporting DNS record modifications.
