Adding A Record
A record is used to point your domain or part of your domain to some specific IP address. From the DNS management section, enter the details as following:
- Name: Enter the hostname for your domain. For example, if your domain name is example.com and you want to point server.example.com to an IP address, then you will need to enter âserverâ in the Name field. If you want to point the whole domain example.com to an IP, you can use the â@â symbol as the hostname. And if you want to point all possible hostnames to an IP, you can use the â*â symbol which is called a wildcard DNS entry.
- Record Type: Select the âAâ record type from the drop-down menu.
- TTL: Here you can see 14440. Leave it like this by default. You donât need anything to do here.
- Value/Address: Give your IP address here where you want to point your domain. Now click on the âAdd Recordâ button and your A record will be added. You can add multiple A records if needed but there should not be any conflicting DNS record with the same hostname.

- Record Type: Select the TXT record type from the drop-down menu.
- TTL: Here you can see 14440. Leave it like this by default. You donât need anything to do here.
