How to configure my domain DNS records

Learn to manage your domain DNS records from the control panel to point your domain to the correct server.

What are DNS records?

DNS (Domain Name System) is like the phone book of the Internet. DNS records indicate where your website is hosted, where emails are sent and other services associated with your domain.

  • A Record: Points the domain to an IP address (for web)
  • MX Record: Indicates where emails should be delivered
  • CNAME Record: Creates an alias from one domain to another
  • TXT Record: For verifications and special configurations (SPF, DKIM, etc.)

Access to the control panel

To manage your domain DNS records, you need to access the Intergrid control panel:

1

Access the control panel

Visit control.intergridnetwork.net and log in with your credentials.

2

Select your domain

In the main menu, go to the section Domains and select the domain you want to configure.

3

Manage DNS records

Look for the option DNS Management or DNS Records to access the configuration.

Most common DNS configurations

Point the domain to your hosting

To make your website work with your contracted hosting:

  • Create or modify the A record with the name '@' or leave it blank
  • Enter your server IP address (you will find it in the control panel)
  • If you want www.domain.cat to also work, create an A record with name 'www' and the same IP

Configure email

To receive emails on your domain with Intergrid service:

  • Create or modify MX records pointing to Intergrid mail servers
  • You will find the correct values in the control panel or service documentation
  • It is recommended to add SPF and DKIM records to improve deliverability

Create subdomains

To create a subdomain like blog.domain.cat:

  • Create an A record with the subdomain name (for example, 'blog')
  • Enter the IP address where you want it to point
  • Or create a CNAME record if you want it to point to another domain

Important notes

Propagation time

Changes in DNS records can take between 1 and 48 hours to propagate across the Internet. Normally, changes are visible in a few hours, but be patient.

Save before making changes

Before modifying DNS records, note down the current values. This way you can recover the configuration if something does not work correctly.
