6 Critical DNS records You Need to Know

DNS records are an essential component of the internet infrastructure. They are responsible for resolving domain names into IP addresses that computers can use to communicate with each other. Without DNS records, navigating the web would be a lot harder. In this blog post, we’ll look at six critical DNS records you need to know. So, let’s start!

A Record (Address Record)

The A record is the most basic DNS record. It maps a domain name to an IP address. Whenever a user enters a domain name into their browser, the browser sends a request to the DNS server to resolve the domain name into an IP address using the A record.

Dynamic DNS – Who can benefit from it?

What is the concept (purpose) of Dynamic DNS?

You must first grasp DNS in order to comprehend what Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is. It is a mechanism that associates a domain name, such as squadrainformatica.com, with an IP address (92.38.169.175).

The same idea is applied by Dynamic DNS but to a WAN IP that changes over time or is “dynamic.” Since having a fixed WAN IP address that never changes is expensive, the majority of household broadband plans do not contain a static WAN IP.

In other words, even if you write down or memorize your current WAN IP address, you generally shouldn’t rely on it to dial your home phone. This is because when you do, that address might have changed to someone else’s home network.

To solve this problem, we use DDNS. It links your current WAN IP address, whatever it may be at any given moment, with a reliable domain name of your choice.

As a result, you don’t even need to know your home network’s IP address to access it using that label (domain name) from anywhere in the world.
