Adding a partial wild-carded Address Record

DNS Service provided by Lead Networks Domains Pvt. Ltd currently does not support partial wildcards in Address (A) Records. For instance, consider the following example, where you are using the DNS Service for domainname.com:

If you try to add the following A record -

Hostname: *.something.domainname.com

Destination IP Address: 203.199.114.89

The system will throw an error: Invalid Name *.something for A Records
