What are SRV records? Just what is their function in the Domain Name System?
An SRV record is a DNS record, which is used to direct a domain to a third-party server and employ it for some service different from a web site. This could be a Voice-Over-IP server, a video streaming service, an instant messaging system, and many others. When an SRV record is created, you can specify an Internet Protocol the domain name will use and the port, which is to be used to connect to the remote server. Moreover, if you have several SRV records for the same service, you are able to set individual priorities and weights for every single one of them, allowing you to distribute the load between many machines. Such a record will enable you to use the same domain address or subdomains under it with different providers, so you're able to employ it for various purposes even if you are not able to get all of the services from just one provider.
SRV Records in Cloud Hosting
You'll be able to set up a new SRV record for each of the domain addresses that you host in a shared website hosting account on our cutting-edge cloud platform. As long as the DNS records for the domain name are handled on our end, you can manage them without difficulty in the respective section of your Hepsia CP and minutes later any new record which you create is going to be active. Hepsia includes a highly intuitive interface and all it will take to set up an SRV record is to fill in a few text boxes - the service the record will be used for, the Internet protocol plus the port number. The priority (1-100), weight (1-100) and TTL boxes have standard values, that you can leave except if the other company needs different ones. TTL stands short for Time To Live and this number shows the time in seconds for the record to remain active in case you edit it or delete it at some point, the default one being 3600.
