Check the records that connect a domain to websites, email platforms, verification services and authoritative nameservers.
DNS records are the published instructions that tell the internet where to send website traffic, email and verification requests for a domain. When a site will not load, mail bounces or a new hosting setup is not visible yet, checking the live records is usually the fastest way to see what the world can resolve right now.
This lookup queries public DNS data for common record types and shows the target value, priority where relevant and TTL in seconds. Results may differ slightly between resolvers because of caching, so compare with your registrar or hosting panel if you recently changed records.
After confirming naming is correct, continue with ping and traceroute for reachability, or use the full Network Diagnostics Suite for port and routing checks.
Match the symptom first, then inspect only the record types that explain that part of the stack.
Paste a domain or full URL. The hostname will be normalized automatically.
Lookups may be sent to Google Public DNS and otherwise use the server resolver. Domain queries are not saved by this tool. See our privacy policy.
DNS record guide
A records use IPv4; AAAA records use IPv6. Both connect hostnames to servers.
MX records identify mail servers. A lower priority number is preferred first.
TXT commonly carries SPF rules, ownership checks and service configuration.
NS identifies authoritative DNS; CNAME points one hostname to another.
CAA specifies which certificate authorities may issue TLS certificates.
SOA describes the DNS zone, while SRV locates named network services.
A DNS lookup shows records published for a domain, including website addresses, mail servers, nameservers, aliases and verification text.
An A record points to an IPv4 address, while an AAAA record points to an IPv6 address.
Lower MX priority numbers are preferred first. Backup mail servers normally use higher priority numbers.
Resolvers cache records for their TTL period, so recently changed records may appear at different times in different locations.
TXT records commonly publish SPF email rules, ownership verification and other machine-readable domain policies.
TTL is the time-to-live in seconds. It tells resolvers how long they may cache a record before asking the authoritative server again.
NS records identify which nameservers are authoritative for a zone. CNAME records create an alias from one hostname to another existing name.
NXDOMAIN means the name does not exist in public DNS. Check spelling, confirm the domain is registered and verify that nameservers are configured at the registrar.
When a website or mailbox fails on a local line in Gharaunda, Panipat or Karnal, check published DNS before blaming Wi-Fi. Pair results with Zerolink broadband or business internet support if the records look correct but the link still misbehaves.
