SRV, which is an abbreviation for Service, is a DNS record, which enables you to employ a domain name for a certain service different from a site. By creating a couple of SRV records, you’ll be able to use the domain address with different companies and direct it to several servers simultaneously, each and every server handling a different service. You can specify the port number for the connection to every single machine, so there will never be any interference. You could also set individual priorities and weight for two records that are employed for the exact same service, but direct to different servers for redundancy or load balancing. By having an SRV record you can use your domain name or a subdomain under it for a Voice-Over-IP server, for example, and have the actual software running on various machines with different providers. Which one a client of yours will use is determined by the priority and weight values that you've set.

SRV Records in Cloud Website Hosting

You'll be able to create a brand new SRV record for any one of the domains you host inside a shared web hosting account on our revolutionary cloud platform. Given that the DNS records for the domain name are handled on our end, you’ll be able to manage them effortlessly in the respective section of your Hepsia CP and just minutes later any new record that you set up will be active. Hepsia features a highly intuitive interface and all it requires to create an SRV record is to fill in a couple of text boxes - the service the record is going to be used for, the Internet protocol as well as the port number. The priority (1-100), weight (1-100) and TTL boxes have standard values, which you can leave except when the other company requires different ones. TTL stands short for Time To Live and this number reveals the time in seconds for the record to stay active if you edit it or erase it at some point, the standard one being 3600.

SRV Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

A new SRV record could be created within seconds for every single domain address hosted within a semi-dedicated server from our company. The Hepsia hosting CP, which is used to manage the semi-dedicated accounts, comes with a really easy-to-use interface, so you will be able to set up any DNS record although you may have no previous experience with such matters. After you sign in to the account, you are able to create records using the DNS management tool, which is a part of Hepsia and once you select SRV for the type, a few text boxes will appear. You have to enter the service, port number and protocol info as well as the record value in them and the new record will be operational right after that. The priority and weight options could be set to every value between 1 and 100, the default one being 10. You can change each of the two in case the other company has asked you to do so. In addition, the Time To Live (TTL) value, which indicates the duration a record will remain working if changed or removed, may also be modified from the default 3600 seconds.
