What are the DNS records?
The DNS records contain various lists for specific domain name settings. There are many different types of DNS records:
An
A records are used to direct the web traffic of a website to another location, usually a remote server. They are stored in the form of IP addresses. They use IPv4 protocol.
An
AAAA records are used to map the web traffic of a website to a 128-bit IPv6 address.
The
MX records affect the mail exchange of a domain name. They point the e-mail traffic to a concrete mail server, which handles the delivery of the messages.
A
CNAME record is an alias of one name to another. The A record to which the alias points can be either local or remote - on a foreign name server. This is useful when running multiple services (like an FTP and a web server) from a single IP address. Each service can then have its own entry in DNS (like ftp.my-best-domain.com. and www.my-best-domain.com.).
A
TXT Record allows an administrator to insert arbitrary text into a DNS record. For example, this record is used to implement the Sender Policy Framework (SPF record) and DomainKeys specifications.
How do I modify A or MX records?
In case you'd like to reset an A record to the default IP address of our server or an MX record to the default mail server address of our server, just click on the Reset button on the right of the record.
In order to set a MX record, just enter the desired mail server address in the domain's corresponding field and click on Change. MX records are literal, e.g. mail.my-best-domain.com.
How do I reset the default settings?
In case you'd like to reset an A record to the default IP address of our server or an MX record to the default mail server address of our server, just click on the Reset button on the right of the record.
How do I set priority to the MX records?
To modify a MX record priority you must change the number situated right by the MX record field and click on Change. The highest priority corresponds to 1 and the lowest corresponds to 100. Usually it is not necessary to modify the priority level of your MX records unless there is such requirement by the server providing the MX records that are set.
How do I add TXT, CNAME or AAAA records?
In order to add CNAME,TXT or AAAA records to your Custom DNS settings you need to enter a hostname (it must be sub domain of an already hosted domain) . Then select the Type of the record which you want to add and fill the Value field with the record's specific values. The TTL settings are set to 3600 seconds and can be changed to another value using the TTL field.
What is TTL and how can I change the TTL of a DNS record?
The TTL or Time To Live DNS records are set by an authoritative nameserver for a particular resource record. When a caching (recursive) nameserver queries the authoritative nameserver for a resource record, it will cache that record for the time (in seconds) specified by the TTL. If a stub resolver queries the caching nameserver for the same record before the TTL has expired, the caching server will simply reply with the already cached resource record rather than retrieve it from the authoritative nameserver again.
Shorter TTLs can cause heavier loads on an authoritative nameserver, but can be useful when changing the address of critical services like web servers or MX records, and therefore are often lowered by the DNS administrator prior to a service being moved, in order to minimize disruptions.
To modify a DNS record's TLL you must change the number situated right by the DNS record field and click on Change.
Host:

icon indicates its active state, while the 
one indicates that it's currently not active. Click on the icon to change the FPE support for a specific subdomain.
icon you may check the bandwidth statistics for a specific subdomain name.
icon to edit all subdomain settings.
command only deletes the subdomain, but not its folder, which can be deleted later by FTP, SSH or using the File Manager.
