The platform provider of engageRE (Reliance Network) has migrated their servers to a new facility which changes their assigned IP addresses. This affects anyone who manages their own DNS (via their registrar, for example), requiring an update to all “A” records associated with their domain(s).

Any and all of your DNS records that reference one of the following IP addresses – 69.25.128.142, 69.25.128.134, or 69.25.128.179 – must be updated to use: 199.34.233.6. In order to avoid service disruption, this must be completed before March 1st, 2016.

As an alternative, because IP addresses can change over time, we highly recommend that you start using the engageRE DNS – it is automatically maintained with changes in IP addresses. You can find instructions on configuring your domain using this method on our website. If you are using your domain name for email, please contact us techassist@engageremarketing.com before making any changes.

If you wish to proceed with the IP address configuration, here are some basic instructions for two of the largest domain name providers:
