What Are DNS Records?
DNS records are settings that connect a domain name to different online services. They help browsers find websites, email systems deliver messages, and other services verify domain ownership.
Common DNS Record Types
- A Record: Connects a domain to an IPv4 address.
- AAAA Record: Connects a domain to an IPv6 address.
- MX Record: Specifies the mail servers responsible for receiving email.
- CNAME Record: Points one domain or subdomain to another hostname.
- NS Record: Shows the nameservers responsible for the domain.
- TXT Record: Stores text information used for verification, email security, and other services.
- SOA Record: Contains important information about the domain’s DNS zone.
- PTR Record: Maps an IP address back to a domain name, when configured.
