Supported DNS record types
A-record
An address record that maps a hostname to an IPv4 address. In general, settings can only be made in commonly known IP formats.
Example) 121.254.170.11
AAAA Records
An IPv6 address record that maps a hostname to an IPv6 address. An IPv6 address is made up of hexadecimal numbers with 8 parts of 16 bits each.
Example) 2001:0230:abcd:ffff:0000:0000:ffff:1111
※However, support is only available on Hosting KR’s cloud name server.
CNAME
A standard name record that specifies an alias name.
CNAME settings cannot be set on the root domain (e.g. hosting.kr).
CNAME(Alias) record
This record resolves the limitation of not being able to set a CNAME on the root domain (e.g. hosting.kr).
You can use it like a CNAME by entering the domain address in the root domain.
※However, support is only available on Hosting KR’s cloud name server.
MX Records
This is a record for sending and receiving mail.
It is required to use email with your domain.
SPF record
This record is added for white domain registration and serves to authenticate the sending mail server.
The mail receiving server checks the sending server's IP, and if it does not match the SPF record, the mail is returned.
In Hosting KR's cloud name server, TXT and SPF records are set separately, and in the previous default Hosting KR name server, the SPF value is set by specifying a TXT record.
SRV Records
Service locator records provide information about the locations of multiple servers providing TCP/IP services.
TXT record
This is a text record. It may contain arbitrary text and is used for security and anti-abuse purposes, such as verifying domain ownership.
A TXT record can contain one or more text strings, with each individual string having a maximum length of 255 characters.
