Adding Record
To make IPs easier to remember, they are generally resolved to corresponding domain names, at which websites can be visited more conveniently. You can add a record in the following steps:
Step 1. Add a domain
Note：
If your domain name is registered in Tencent Cloud, the domain name will be automatically added to Domain name resolution list, and no action is required for this step.
1. Log in to the DNSPod Console. Click Add Domain on the Authoritative DNS page. As shown in the figure below:
2. Enter the domain name to be added and click Next.
3. If the domain name successfully appears in Authoritative DNS page, it indicates that the addition was successful.
Step 2. Add a record
1. Log in to the DNSPod Console. In Authoritative DNS page, you can view all added domain names.
2. In Authoritative DNS page, click the target domain to enter the Record Management page.
3. In the Record Management page, click Add Record.
Note:
If you need to resolve the domain name to your host IP address, you can do the following:
Operation Method | Content | Note | |
Add a record | Host: enter the domain prefix, such as "www". Type: select "A". Split Zone: select the "Default" type. Value: enter your host IP address (public IP). Weight: enter an integer between 0 and 100. MX: leave it empty. TTL: it is 600s by default. | | For example, when adding a record for www.dnspod.com, you can simply select "www" in the "Host" field. If you want to add a record for dnspod.com, select "@" in the "Host" field. |
Step 3. Modify the DNS address
Step 4. Wait for the change to take effect
After finishing the steps above, wait patiently.
Note:
DNS server changes will take effect globally in 0–48 hours; therefore, if you find that the record doesn't take effect in some regions, but the change was made less than 48 hours ago, please just wait patiently.
Newly added records can take effect immediately. You can delete records and add them again to make them take effect more quickly.
For more information on how to verify whether a record has taken effect, please see DNS Resolution Effect.
