How To Use the Reg.ru Plugin

This plugin works against the Reg.ru and Reg.com provider. It is assumed that you have already setup an account and registered the domain you will be working against.

Setup

API Access is not allowed without adding your client machine's IP or subnet to a whitelist. You may also set a separate API password that is different than your primary account password. But it is not required. Both settings are configured from the API Settings page.

Using the Plugin

Your account username and either the account password or API password are used with the RegRuCredential parameter as a PSCredential object. It has been reported that the typical DNS propagation time for this provider is close to 1 hour. So be sure to set the DNSSleep parameter longer than 3600.

Warning

The RegRuLogin and RegRuPwdInsecure parameters are deprecated and will be removed in the next major module version. If you are using them, please migrate to the Secure parameter set.
