Similar to an A Record, the AAAA Record maps a domain name to an IP address, but requires you to map the domain to an IPv6 address instead of an IPv4 address.
Creating a 'AAAA' record consists of completing the following three fields:
-
Host - The hostname for the record, entered as either a simple, one-part name, or as a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) with or without a trailing dot. Examples:
-
hostname
-
hostname.example.biz
-
hostname.example.biz.
-
example.biz
-
example.biz.
-
-
Points To - The IPv6 address for the domain.
-
TTL - The Time to Live (TTL) for the record. You can provide this value as either an integer or an annotated value (1h = 1 hour).
-
This field is not required, and will be set to the default value if left empty.
