This guide explains how to add or modify one or more A and AAAA type records in the DNS zone (of a domain name) managed on the Manager Infomaniak.

Preamble

• This type of record allows a domain name to point to a static IP address (usually a server), type A for an IPv4 and AAAA for IPv6.
• This is the method generally used to redirect your domain name to the IP address of the web server on which your website is hosted. Moreover, this type of pointing is used automatically to link your domain name with your website if they are in the same place and in the same Infomaniak Organization.
• You should only modify this type of record if you have a particular configuration to set up (e.g., pointing a subdomain to an external application).
