How-to Add DNS Host A Records using Ecenica DNS

How can I add a DNS A Record to my domain?

Use the steps below to add DNS host A records to your Ecenica domain name using Ecenica DNS.

Steps to Add a DNS A Record

  1. Log in to Ecenica Dashboard.
  2. Go to My Domains.
  3. Click a domain you wish to manage.
  4. From the menu, click DNS.
  5. Enter the name for your new record. For example:
    • Use @ to add a new DNS record at your domain root e.g. example.com
    • Use www to create a new DNS record at www.example.com
  6. Select A from the Type drop-down list.
  7. Optionally, enter a TTL (Time To Live). The default minimum TTL for Ecenica DNS is 1h (3600 seconds)
  8. Enter the IP Address into the Value field
  9. Click Add.

Your domain name will be instantly updated with your new DNS A record. However if you can’t see the new DNS record when you view it on your device it’s likely your router or ISP has a cache of your old DNS records. Please allow 48 hours for these DNS caches to clear.
