thank you. Are there any distinct advantages or differences in using CNAME records compared to A records when configuring DNS settings? I'm aware that both CNAME and A records can be employed for DNS setup, but I'm uncertain if one offers specific benefits over the other

Hello, I’m Allie!•8/24/23, 12:49 PM

It's a difference in what they can be used for. As an example, Pages uses CNAMEs for its custom domains. This means that even if Pages changes the IP addresses it uses to serve content, that change will be reflected on your CNAMEd domain as well. With an A/AAAA record, it will only function if the IP address continues to serve that content. But, in return, a single IP address can serve content for many sites at once.

Is it possible to allow access to enrolled users in gateway (Cloudflare Zero Trust Access) without having to use the E-Mail OTP-Code (we don't have / need an IDP atm). I would just like if the user has gateway installed and enabled that he gains instant access.

You can use a gateway posture check, and then a service auth policy which includes it: https://community.cloudflare.com/t/using-warp-posture-checks-with-cloudflare-access/449569

Using WARP posture checks with Cloudflare Access

This tutorial explains how to enable WARP client posture checks and use them in an Access application policy. Enabling the “Warp” and “Gateway” selectors The “Warp” and “Gateway” selectors are not visible in the policy creator by default and must be manually enabled. Fortunately, this is quite simple and can be done in only a few steps. In th...

Chaika•8/24/23, 7:02 PM

Clients will pass the “Gateway” posture check if:

    The WARP client is signed in to your Zero Trust organization; and
    The WARP connection mode is “Gateway with WARP”; and
    The “Proxy” option is enabled in Settings → Network → Firewall

Clients will pass the “Gateway” posture check if:

    The WARP client is signed in to your Zero Trust organization; and
    The WARP connection mode is “Gateway with WARP”; and
    The “Proxy” option is enabled in Settings → Network → Firewall

Important to note those requirements as well

Thanks for your help. I had everything setup correctly besides the Service Auth Policy. I was using allow.

I sometimes get discombombulated when to use which policy... I would have never thought that Gateway is an Service Auth Policy.

Really appreciate it

Chaika•8/24/23, 7:29 PM

Of course!

Yea it can be a bit confusing, Allow is basically "go through an identity provider, and then check the conditions", Bypass is if you match these conditions, exit out of the Zero Trust flow and go through normal zone security, Service Auth is "check these conditions, if you pass, you go through the full zero trust flow, just without an identity"

Thanks for the extra clarification. I will write that down in our notes. Have a great rest of day

1. You can delete the DNS record for the tunnel. You'll just have to make sure to recreate it
2. You can enable/disable login methods for certain applications

Chaika•8/24/23, 8:45 PM

would be cool, wouldn't hold your breath for it though. That entire UI is just a wrapper around the cloudflared config in json format, and afaik there's no way to disable a ingress rule without deleting it, so it'd need to be added there first (some disabled: property or something)

I am currently getting the following warning when starting my worker with

wrangler dev --remote

wrangler dev --remote

▲ [WARNING] worker failed to prewarm:  Service Temporarily Unavailable

▲ [WARNING] worker failed to prewarm:  Service Temporarily Unavailable

Is there something I can do on my side, or do I have to wait until it is fixed on cloudflare side ?

kian•8/24/23, 9:49 PM

Are you using Queues?

F0rce•8/24/23, 10:16 PM

a small google search said that queues can not be used in

--remote

--remote

so I fixed it by not using queues (as they were not needed for my testing). thanks you for the answer though.

Update replaces and patch replaces parts

alright, will probably only use update then as i already have all the record data

valkyrie_pilot•8/25/23, 3:58 AM

is there a reason the API returns values for DNS names that it doesn't actually support? For example, rather then returning

for root zone DNS records, it returns the name of the zone, which is.. complex to normalize

a subdomain zone requires enterprise afaik (called LTZ)

Original message was deleted

Unsmart•8/25/23, 3:46 PM

pretty sure that is still the root domain just partial setup

Cyb3r-Jak3•8/25/23, 3:47 PM

LTZ is when you split off a subdomain and partial is when you don’t change the nameservers

Unsmart•8/25/23, 3:50 PM

Not really unless you have enterprise so you can use different backend but even then having the actual domain on cloudflare would be better than using saas
