Campus Subdomain
Basic information
The University uses uec.ac.jp as the top-level domain of the University. The Center for Information Infrastructure is in charge of the permission review and management of the subdomains (~.uec.ac.jp, ~.lab.uec.ac.jp) directly under uec.ac.jp and lab.uec.ac.jp.
Basic Management Policy
The subdomains of uec.ac.jp will be assigned to large organizations of our university regions, majors, classes, secretariat, centers, research stations, etc.
The subdomains of lab.uec.ac.jp are assigned to small and medium-sized research organizations (laboratories, research projects, etc.) of our university as subdomains that do not belong to each research organization.
All other organizational domains should be registered as lower subdomains of the existing subdomains. Please check with the administrator of each subdomain for registration procedures.
Subdomains directly below uec.ac.jp and lab.uec.ac.jp should be assigned one** to **1 organization in principle.
In principle, the subdomain name must be more than 3 characters to make it easier to understand what kind of organization it is, not only on campus but also off campus.
Please note that subdomains may be discontinued without notice
If the manager of a subdomain is absent due to retirement, etc., and a successor manager cannot be established.
If management is not practically in place (e.g., not being able to contact the manager of the subdomain, the manager of the subdomain is not qualified to manage DNS, etc.).
If the Information Infrastructure Center determines that there is a high risk of information security (for example, being used for cyberattacks).
Application for Permission to Use Subdomains
The flow of subdomain usage is as follows.
subdomain permission application
Please submit the subdomain application form listed in the Information Technology Center Application Form List to the Administrative Office of the Information Technology Center (4th floor, East Bldg. 3). The subdomain application will be reviewed within 8 business days and the results will be sent to the email addresses of the Applicant and Domain Manager in the UEC account.
Register DNS records for subdomain
You can use the Subdomain DNS Record Management System with the UEC account of the domain administrator at the time of application. Please log in to the system and register your DNS records.

About DNS record registration work on behalf of us
The Information Technology Center will handle the DNS record registration work on your behalf only if you agree to the following conditions.
The number of records registered in the subdomain is approximately 10.
The frequency of setting changes is about once a month.
It will take about one week for the Information Infrastructure Center to complete the process after receiving a request to change settings.
The Information Technology Center will only perform the work on your behalf. Please check the record contents with the domain administrator.
If you wish, please send the details of the desired DNS record to support@cc.uec.ac.jp with the subject line 「DNS レコード登録依頼」(DNS record registration request).
Regarding Building Your Own DNS Server
If you use your own DNS server, you will need to switch the DNS server.Once have built a DNS server and the operation check is complete, please contact support@cc.uec.ac.jp to request a switch.
Modifying Subdomain Registration Information
If you want to change the subdomain registration information (e.g., Domain Manager), please send the change to Subdomain Manager to support@cc.uec.ac.jp with subdomain registration information change.
Caution
To change the subdomain itself, please do not change the registration information, but perform Abolition of Subdomains, and then perform Application for Permission to Use Subdomains again.
Abolition of Subdomains
If a subdomain is no longer needed due to organization abolition or consolidation, please have the domain administrator contact support@cc.uec.ac.jp with the subject line 「サブドメイン廃止」(Subdomain abolition) and the planned date of abolition. If you are operating a mail server, etc., emails will not be delivered when the subdomain is abolished. Please set the deprecation date with sufficient time in advance. If necessary, please consult with the Information Technology Center in advance regarding the abolition procedure, etc.
Subdomain DNS Record Management System
The Information Technology Center provides a Subdomain DNS Record Management System for subdomain administrators and administrators to manage DNS records. Please see below for how to use it.
Hint
Only the person in charge and administrator of the subdomain that has been registered in advance can use the subdomain DNS record management system.
