  • To modify a record, click its name.

  • To remove a record, select the checkbox next to the record’s name and click Remove.

APPLYING DNS RECORDS

As a final step, click the Update button to apply your changes records to your domain.

Note that removing certain records will affect the functioning of your domain. For example, removing the A record will effectively disconnect your domain name from your website. If you made changes to the DNS zone that unintentionally affect the functioning of your website, you can restore the default DNS records by clicking Reset to Default. This will undo all the changes made to the DNS zone and recreate it according to the server-wide DNS template. Note that any custom records you may have added to the zone will be lost.
