<Message type="important">
It is possible to use the [Scaleway CLI's Domains and DNS commands](https://github.com/scaleway/scaleway-cli/blob/master/docs/commands/dns.md) to read and edit DNS zones for VPC Private Networks. The format for these zones is `<Private_Network_ID>.<VPC_ID>.privatedns.`. For example to list the records of a Private Network's DNS zone, use `scw dns record list <Private_Network_ID>.<VPC_ID>.privatedns.`

However, using the CLI to view and manage your VPC's DNS records is **not officially supported by Scaleway**. It should only be attempted by advanced users, at their own risk. VPC DNS is designed to be fully managed by Scaleway: using the CLI to manually remove or modify records that have been auto-created may result in a broken DNS service on your VPC.
