How to create an SRV record for the CSTA service

I'm kinda stuck. I am tasked with creating an SRV record for the CSTA service. But I must be doing it wrong.

Here's what I thought it should be:
_csta_tcp.csta-example.com. 3600 IN SRV hostname.example.com.

Am I even close?

There's a typo in my record. It's _csta._tcp.csta-example.com. 3600 IN SRV hostname.example.com.

You have me dead to rights on that. I was trying to make an example and failed. Here's my record:
_csta._tcp.csta.example.com. 3600 IN SRV 20 0 1040 hostname.example.com

Instead of "hostname.example.com", you need "hostname.example.com.", with a trailing dot.

OK I made mistakes. I’m sorry for wasting anyone's time, I really am.

I was trying to see if anyone had even made an SRV record for the CSTA service. My presentation of the dig example was a poor choice.

_csta._tcp.csta.example.com. 3600 IN SRV 20 0 1040 hostname.example.com
so why don't you just send an unaltered record instead of 3 mails?

the first two ending with a dot but missing fields, the last one seems
to have all fields but the traling dot is missing

csta.example.com. is a subdomain "csta" below example.com
is that desired?

"hostname.example.com" instead "hostname.example.com." means
"hostname.example.com.example.com"

again: don't provide mangeled informations when you need help - frankly
the only obfusction you can make es replace your domain name and ONLY
that with example.com

the first is a working example from a microsoft SIP record and now
compare it to your real setup

_sipfederationtls._tcp 3600 IN SRV 1 100 5061 sipfed.online.lync.com.
_csta._tcp.csta.example.com. 3600 IN SRV 20 0 1040 hostname.example.com

CSTA? Are you talking about the Unify Openscape Voice stuff? If so, then
that's a VoIP platform, the SRV records are used for SIP stuff. So the
service name is "sip" or "sips". You can't just make up service names, out
of thin air, for "dumb" devices that have service names baked into their
code -- you have to publish records with a service name that they are going
to be able to find.

Our SRV records for Openscape Voice look like, basically,

_sips._tcp.{sip-domain}. 3600 IN SRV 10 0 5061 {target}

and/or

_sip._udp.{sip-domain}. 3600 IN SRV 5 0 5060 {target}

I'm simplifying a bit here. Each of them has a primary (pref 5) and a
failover (pref 10).

The port numbers correspond to what IANA has published at
https://www.iana.org/assignments/service-names-port-numbers/service-names-port-numbers.txt

sip 5060 tcp SIP

2014-04-09
[RFC3263]
sip 5060 udp SIP

2014-04-09
[RFC3263]
sip 5060 sctp SIP


[RFC4168]
sips 5061 tcp SIP-TLS

2014-04-09
[RFC3263]
sips 5061 udp SIP-TLS

2014-04-09
[RFC3263]
sips 5061 sctp SIP-TLS

Talk to your Voice folks for the values to plug in for {sip-domain} and
{target}, in each case.

Meh. Don’t sweat it .. everyone has goofed in some manner at sometime or another.

Besides, we are team BIND! We won't tell a-n-y-o-n-e.

The SRV record needs 4 data items; you've specified only one.

For an easy read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRV_record

For something more formal: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2782

Good luck!
