Assist Note

Once you have added or changed your DNS records, allow 2 to 24 hours for DNS propagation to complete.

Assist Tip

Incorrect DNS changes can interfere with the operation of your website and/or email, so make changes with care.

Self-Managed Server customers who wish to add reverse (PTR) DNS records for their allocated IP addresses are not able to do so via the Manage DNS tool and will need to send these requests to our Support team from their authorised email address.
