A Records (IP Addresses)

All servers connected to the Internet are assigned a unique IP address. An A record associates a name to the server IP address, allowing people to use easy-to-remember domain names (rather than hard-to-remember IP addresses) to connect to a website.

Before you begin editing A records, you should:

  • Know the associated IP addresses - 52.39.109.56
  • Understand that DNS updates will take up to 2 hours to take effect (updates may resolve more quickly at some locations than others because many name servers on the Internet retrieve updates at different times).

How to Update A Records

  • Log in to Account Manger
  • Within Account Manager, use the drop down under My Domain Names to choose the domain you’d like to manage and click the Go button
  • In the green box, select Change Where Domain Points
  • Select Advanced DNS
  • Click the Continue button
  • If the domain name was not previously pointed to Network Solutions® nameservers (DNS) you will receive a page with messaging regarding this change. If you’d like to continue, click the Move Nameservers to Network Solutions® button
  • In the IP Address (A Records) section, click Edit A Records
  • Your current A records are listed in editable form, and any Network Solutions® service that is associated with the A record is listed below the Numeric IP text box
  • The first three hosts listed are the most common hosts used with domain names:
    • www : Points to the specified IP address when Internet users enter an address
    • @ (none) : Points to the specified IP address when a user enters just the domain name without anything before it
    • * (All Others) : Points any unassociated host for a domain name to the specified IP address, similar to a catch-all feature that could be used for any misspelled host names
