DNS Management - What is DNS?
DNS is the acronym for Domain Name System, or domain name system. Created in 1983, DNS allows you to connect to a site by typing the domain name and not the IP address, as was the case previously, making it easier and more intuitive to use the web. It is thanks to DNS records that you now enter shellrent.com on the URL and not its IP address to visit the Shellrent site.

Why are there different DNS records?
A DNS record can correspond to different types of information, for this reason, there are different types of DNS records. The ones we make available on our control panel are:
What do DNS records allow to do?
Some allow you to determine which servers are authoritative for delivering mail from your domain, others allow you to link one DNS name to another. To know all their functions, you can consult our guide that will help you configure them directly from the manager.shellrent.com control panel.
How can I change the different records?
In order to set the DNS records according to your needs, you need to log in to your control panel, select the domain name concerned and go to the Actions section, Manage DNS.
