NS record of subdomain does not propagate

What is the name of the domain?

mkt.oniz.com.br

What is the error number?

I don’t have a specific error code

What is the error message?

I don’t have a message with the error. The record just dont propagate

What is the issue you’re encountering

I have to make the subdomain mkt.oniz.com.br point to the NS ns1.exacttarget.com.br, I create the record in cloudflare, but it is not propagated and I cannot validate my salesforce application

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

I tried to create the records again

I tried to validate with my registrar (registro.br) but I was not successful

perhaps enabling DNSSEC would help?

What feature, service or problem is this related to?

DNS records

What are the steps to reproduce the issue?

I tried to check on the website DNS Propagation Checker - Global DNS Testing Tool

and does not propagate. I already created this record a few days ago.

The delegation is in place…

oniz.com.br.		3600	IN	NS	john.ns.cloudflare.com.
oniz.com.br.		3600	IN	NS	sureena.ns.cloudflare.com.

;; Received 44 bytes from 104.225.42.1#53(ns1.exacttarget.com) in 7 ms

However the exacttarget.com nameservers don’t have NS records for the subdomain itself…

dig mkt.oniz.com.br ns @ns1.exacttarget.com

In my test i got a timeout.
(Maybe it’s interesting to point out that I’m testing this from Brazil)

dig mkt.oniz.com.br ns

As for the exacttarget.com nameserver, are you suggesting that there is a missing configuration on their side?

You are delegating mkt to their nameservers, so you need to have the records set in those nameservers (including NS records).
