About DNS Lookup

🚀 What is DNS?

DNS (Domain Name System) is like the phonebook of the internet. It translates human-readable domain names (like google.com) into IP addresses (like 142.250.80.46) that computers use to communicate. DNS records store this mapping information.

✨ Key Features

  • Query all major DNS record types
  • Instant results from global DNS servers
  • Detailed record information
  • MX priority display for email setup
  • Troubleshoot DNS propagation issues

DNS Record Types Explained

A Record

Maps domain to IPv4 address (e.g., 192.168.1.1)

AAAA Record

Maps domain to IPv6 address

MX Record

Mail exchange servers for email routing

TXT Record

Text info: SPF, DKIM, domain verification

NS Record

Authoritative name servers for domain

CNAME Record

How to Use

  1. Enter a domain name (e.g., google.com)
  2. Select the record type or choose "All Records"
  3. Click "Check DNS" to query the records
  4. Review the results in the table below

💡 Pro Tip

DNS changes can take up to 48 hours to propagate globally (TTL - Time To Live). If you just changed DNS records and don't see them yet, wait for the TTL to expire or check using different DNS resolvers.
