DNS Management allows those running a web server to create and manage DNS records for their domain(s) using our nameservers. Using our web-based control panel, you may create and manage A, MX, NS, and CNAME records.

Alias Record: A unique Alias Record should be created for each physical host in your domain that you want to address using a DNS name; an example is mycomputer.mydomain.com. Enter a hostname (e.g. www.domain.com) for your computer and the IP address (e.g. 215.16.45.2) of a computer you want the name to point toward. Note: An Alias is the same as a BIND "A" Record. You may add multiple Aliases with the same hostname but different IP's to provide system redundancy if you have multiple computers providing the same services.

NS Record: A Nameserver Record specifies a host to act as a nameserver for a domain. When first logging into the DNS Management console our nameservers are set to act as the nameserver for your domain(s). The records for our nameservers appear in red in the Management Console. The hostname of a nameserver must be an Alias Record; do not use a CNAME.

MX Record: A Mailserver Record (MX) specifies a host to receive mail for your domain. The hostname of a mail server must be an Alias Record; do not use a CNAME.

CNAME Record: A CNAME Record creates an alias from one fully qualified domain name to another fully qualified domain name. For example, if you wish to have the address ftp.domain.com point to webserver.domain.com you may create the CNAME record ftp.domain.com to point to webserver.mydomain.com. CNAMEs allow you to refer to domain names without having to worry about the actual IP address.
