If you had previously set up the well-known `client` file, depending on how you've done it, it may be that there is nothing new required of you (besides [upgrading](docs/maintenance-upgrading-services.md)). After upgrading, you can [run a self-check](docs/maintenance-checking-services.md), which will tell you if you need to do anything extra with regard to setting up [Server Delegation via a well-known file](docs/howto-server-delegation.md#server-delegation-via-a-well-known-file). After some time, when most people have upgraded to Synapse v0.99 and older releases have disappeared, be prepared to drop your `_matrix._tcp` SRV record. - (more advanced) if the [Downsides of well-known-based Server Delegation](docs/howto-server-delegation.md#downsides-of-well-known-based-server-delegation) are not to your liking, **as an alternative**, you can set up [Server Delegation via a DNS SRV record](docs/howto-server-delegation.md#server-delegation-via-a-dns-srv-record-advanced). In such a case, you get to keep using your existing `_matrix._tcp` DNS SRV record forever and need to NOT set up a `/.well-known/matrix/server` file. Don't forget that you need to do certificate changes though. Follow the guide at [Server Delegation via a DNS SRV record](docs/howto-server-delegation.md#server-delegation-via-a-dns-srv-record-advanced).
