Adding A, CNAME, and MX records
Domains & DNS
DNS records tell the internet where to find your website and email. Here are the most common types:
A Record
Points a domain to an IP address.
For TransPark hosting: Point to 15.222.50.236
CNAME Record
Points a subdomain to another domain name. Common uses:
www→yourdomain.com(so www works)mail→ your email provider's domain
MX Records
Directs email to your mail server. If using Google Workspace:
| Priority | Value |
|---|---|
| 1 | ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM |
| 5 | ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM |
| 5 | ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM |
Where to add records
Add DNS records at wherever your nameservers are pointed — usually your domain registrar's DNS panel.
