DNS (Domain Name System) is an Internet directory service. DNS is how domain names are translated into IP addresses, and DNS also controls email delivery. Each registered domain name has a DNS record that includes MX, A, and CNAME records and name server records.

The DNS (Domain Name System) records control the functionality of domain names. Each registered domain name has a DNS record. The DNS record is made of sub records including MX, A, and CNAME. You can manage the DNS records for your domain name by clicking on ‘manage domain name’ on the my home page or on the top navigation bar ‘Manage Domains’. Click on ‘edit’ below the respective records to independently edit your MX, A, and CNAME records.
