How to add a record with Zone Editor

תוכן העניינים:

Adding a DNS record in cPanel using the DNS Zone Editor allows you to manage how your domain interacts with your hosting environment and external services. This can be essential for setting up email services, subdomains or verifying domain ownership, among others. Here is a step-by-step guide to adding a DNS record in cPanel:

Step 1. Enter cPanel
Step 2. Region Editor

After logging in, we will look for the “DNS Zone Editor” in the “Domains” section.

Step 3. Next to the domain you want to create a record, click on the type of record.

In the DNS zone editor, there is a list of domains associated with your cPanel account. Select the domain you want to change by clicking on it.

Adding a record: There are options to add different types of DNS records, such as A, CNAME, MX, TXT, etc. Select the appropriate record type.
Record: Links a domain to an IP address.
CNAME record: Redirects a domain or subdomain to another domain name.
MX Record: Redirects email to your email server.
TXT Record: Provides text information to external services, often used for domain authentication or email security settings (SPF, DKIM).

 A message box appears to enter the name of the record followed by the IP address to which we want to point. After filling in all the fields, click on add record.

Step 4. The record has been successfully added

A green confirmation will appear in the upper right corner of the interface.

After entering all the necessary information for your new DNS record, click the “Add Record” or “Save” button to apply the changes .

DNS changes can take anywhere from a few minutes to 48 hours to propagate around the world. During this time, some users may not see the changes immediately.
