How should a DNS entry be formatted to work?
In general, as long as our system does not return an error message when creating a DNS entry, you have generated a “functional” entry. This does not yet mean that the resulting settings correspond to the expected result.
When creating a DNS entry, different parameters must be defined. The entry form looks like this:
Here, you must first choose the entry format (A-Record for website calls, MX-Records for the use of mail servers, TXT-Records for verification entries or parameter configuration, etc.) and then enter the corresponding parameters according to the format.
To ensure basic functionality of the DNS entry, our system automatically completes the domain name whose DNS zone you are modifying (Zone-Apex), so that to create entries for a subdomain such as “www.example-domain.com”, you only need to enter “www” in the “Record Name” field.
The “functional” settings depend heavily on the type of record being processed. Follow the system messages here to adjust missing or incorrect values before saving the zone. You can also contact hosting.fr support at support@hosting.fr about this.
