Adding Record Sets for a Public Zone

An A record set maps a domain name to an IPv4 address. If you have a website with a public IP address and domain name, you can map the domain name to the public IP address by adding an A record set. After the record set is added, the website can be accessed using the domain name.

Constraints

An A record cannot coexist with a CNAME, explicit URL, or implicit URL record for the same name and line.

For details about the conflict rules and handling measures, see Rules for Handling Record Set Conflicts.

Procedure

1. Go to the Public Zones page.
2. Locate the target zone and click Manage Record Sets in the Operation column.

3. Click Add Record Set above the record set list.

   

4. On the Add Record Set page, set record set parameters as instructed.
