Editing Delegation (section)

== SRV DNS record delegation ==

{{Warning|This form of delegation is not generally recommended, as it can be difficult to configure the TLS certificates correctly in this case, and it offers little advantage over {{ic|.well-known}} delegation.}}

{{Note|
* Server delegation is a function of server-server communication, and as such using SRV DNS records will not cover use cases involving client-server communications. This means setting global client settings will still require that you serve a file from the {{ic|https://<server_name>/.well-known/}} endpoints defined in the specification.
}}

To set up SRV DNS record delegation, create a SRV DNS record with {{ic|_matrix-fed._tcp.<hostname>}} that points to the delegated hostname.
