Frequently Asked Questions

What is an A record?

An A (Address) record points a domain name to its corresponding IPv4 address, telling browsers where the website is hosted.

Why do I see multiple MX records?

Domains often have multiple MX records with different priorities to ensure emails are delivered even if the primary mail server goes down.

What does TTL mean?

Time To Live (TTL) indicates how long a DNS record is cached by servers before it must be refreshed.

Can I check IPv6 addresses?

Yes, simply select the AAAA record type to query a domain's IPv6 configuration.
