Setting Up DirectI Connection

Requirements: agreement with DirectI signed

To set up your connection with DirectI:

1. Log into your admin CP.
2. Select Domain Registrar in the Settings menu.
3. In the Add New Registrar box, choose DirectI and click the Add button:

   

4. You'll need to enter your DirectI connection data:

• Title: the name of your account. You can have more than one connection with DirectI.
• Service URL: the URL to connect to DirectI's server (provided by DirectI).
• Login: the login to the server (provided by DirectI).
• Password: the password to login to the DirectI's server (provided by DirectI).
• Parent ID: the id of the parent reseller account, 1 if no parent exists.
• License Agreement: the text and/or the path to the license agreement obtained from DirectI that explains the DirectI's obligations to your customers, their obligations to DirectI and proves you are a lawful registration service provider. This will be shown to your end-customers on the signup forms and when they decide to create a new domain through their CP.
• Warn users about domain expiration this many days in advance: the domains are bought from DirectI for a certain period of time (one or more years). When this time expires the domain is suspended, and if the term of domain name registration is not renewed, the domain is canceled and becomes available for sale to other buyers. Here you can set the number of days before the domain expiration date to remind the user about approaching domain cancelation.
• Renew domains this many days before domain expiration: number of days before domain expiration to automatically renew the domain registration (as opposed to manual domain name registration renewal).

To test DirectI without registering domains, you need to create a test account using DirectI web interface.
