[CloudFlare] Adding DNS Records


0

This tutorial covers adding general DNS records and specifically A, AAAA, CNAME, MX and TXT records.


To create a DNS record in the dashboard:

  1. Log in to the Cloudflare dashboard and select an account and domain.
  2. Go to DNS > Records.
  3. Click Add record.
  4. Choose a record Type.
  5. Complete the required fields, which vary per record. Particularly important fields (for some records) include:
    • Proxy status: For AAAAA, and CNAME records, decide whether hostname traffic is proxied through Cloudflare.
    • TTL: Short for Time to Live, this field controls how long each record is valid and — as a result — how long it takes for record updates to reach your end users.
    • Comment and TagRecord attributes meant for your reference.
  6. Click Save.

Please select which record you need help adding: A Record AAAA Record CNAME Record MX Record TXT Record

Other records that are not directly covered in this tutorial can be added in a similar way via the DNS app in your dashboard
