Wildcard domains give you several advantages, including:

- You don't need to onboard each subdomain in your Azure Front Door profile. For example, suppose you create new subdomains every customer, and route all customers' requests to a single origin group. Whenever you add a new customer, Azure Front Door understands how to route traffic to your origin group even though the subdomain hasn't been explicitly configured.

- You can use a single web application firewall (WAF) policy for all of your subdomains.

Commonly, wildcard domains are used to support software as a service (SaaS) solutions, and other multitenant applications. When you build these application types, you need to give special consideration to how you route traffic to your origin servers. For more information, see [Use Azure Front Door in a multitenant solution](/azure/architecture/guide/multitenant/service/front-door).

You can add a wildcard domain under the section for front-end hosts or domains. Similar to subdomains, Azure Front Door (classic) validates that there's CNAME record mapping for your wildcard domain. This DNS mapping can be a direct CNAME record mapping like `*.contoso.com` mapped to `endpoint.azurefd.net`. Or you can use afdverify temporary mapping. For example, `afdverify.contoso.com` mapped to `afdverify.endpoint.azurefd.net` validates the CNAME record map for the wildcard.

WAF policies can be attached to wildcard domains, similar to other domains. A different WAF policy can be applied to a subdomain of a wildcard domain. Subdomains will automatically inherit the WAF policy from the wildcard domain if there is no explicit WAF policy associated to the subdomain. However, if the subdomain is added to a different profile from the wildcard domain profile, the subdomain cannot inherit the WAF policy associated with the wildcard domain.
