Advanced domain management using the Hosting Panel

This article describes how to accomplish advanced domain management tasks using the Webcentral Hosting Panel.

The information in this article only applies to domains purchased directly from Webcentral. If you purchased a domain from a third-party registrar, check their documentation instead for information about how to manage your domain.

1. Log in to the Hosting Panel at https://theconsole.webcentral.au/login.

2. Click the Domains card:

   

3. Click the domain you want to configure.

5. Update the domain registrant contact information:

   

6. Click Submit.

Obtaining an EPP code

If you want to transfer your domain to another registrar, you must obtain an EPP (Extensible Provisioning Protocol) code first. The EPP code is an additional security measure that helps prevent unauthorized domain transfers.

Domain registrars may also refer to the EPP code as the EPP key, an AuthInfo code, a transfer secret, or something similar.

To obtain an EPP code, follow these steps:

1. Log in to the Hosting Panel at https://theconsole.webcentral.au/login.

2. Click the Domains card:

   

3. Click the domain you want to configure.

   👍

   Tip

   You can filter the list of domains to only display active, canceled, or all domains. To do this, click the Active, Cancelled, or All tab.

4. Click Get EPP Code (Non-UK Domains):

   

5. The Hosting Panel notifies you that the EPP code has been generated.

   Note

   The EPP code is sent to the registrant e-mail address for the domain.
