How to create DNS entry for newly built Server.

 Hello Friends,

In this blog we are going to discuss on how to create DNS entry for new server. Please follow below steps to create DNS entry ( A record under domain ).

Step 1:- Login to DNS server and search for DNS manager.

Step 2:- Under DNS Manager click on Forward Lookup Zones and then select your domain (xyz.com)

Step 3:- Under your domain --> right click on the page--->click on New Host (A or AAAA).               


Step 4:- Fill the Server name and IP address of new server and make sure you select the check box of Create associated pointer (PTR) record.



A Pointer (PTR) record is a type of domain Name System (DNS) record that resolves an IP address to a domain or host name, unlike an A record which points a domain name to an IP address.

PTR records are used for the reverse DNS lookup.
