What are DNS Records?
Domain Name System (DNS) records are instructions stored on authoritative DNS servers that provide information about a domain. Often referred to as the phonebook of the internet, these records map human-readable domain names to IP addresses and store verification policies.
Why Use the DNS Lookup Tool
Use our tool to troubleshoot website accessibility and email delivery problems. It is helpful for verifying that DNS changes have propagated globally, auditing email security configurations like SPF and DMARC, and ensuring web traffic is routing to the correct servers.
What the Tool Shows
| Record Type | What It Tells You |
|---|---|
| A / AAAA | IPv4 and IPv6 addresses for hosts in the zone. |
| MX | Mail servers and priorities for inbound email routing. |
| NS | Authoritative nameservers that answer DNS queries for the domain. |
| TXT | Text records used for SPF, DKIM, domain verification, and other policies. |
| CNAME | Aliases that point one hostname to another. |
| SOA | Start of Authority details such as serial, refresh, and expire timers. |
| CAA | Certificate Authority Authorization rules for TLS issuance. |
| SRV | Service location records for protocols such as SIP, XMPP, or LDAP. |
Remember that DNS changes made at your registrar or hosting provider can take anywhere from a few minutes to 48 hours to propagate globally. Use this tool periodically to confirm when your updated records are live on the internet.
