ChistStudioWhat this tool queries
This performs a live DNS lookup against Google's public DNS-over-HTTPS resolver (dns.google), returning whatever records are currently published for the domain — useful for confirming a DNS change has propagated, debugging email deliverability via MX and TXT (SPF/DKIM) records, or verifying a domain's nameservers point where you expect.
Record types explained
- A — IPv4 address
- AAAA — IPv6 address
- MX — mail server responsible for the domain
- TXT — arbitrary text, commonly used for SPF, DKIM and domain verification
- NS — authoritative nameservers for the domain
- CNAME — an alias pointing to another domain name
Frequently asked questions
Why do my DNS changes not show up here yet?
Records are cached according to their TTL, both by public resolvers and your own device or ISP. Propagation can take from a few minutes up to 48 hours depending on the previous TTL and caching behavior.
What is the difference between an A and an AAAA record?
An A record maps a domain to an IPv4 address; an AAAA record maps it to an IPv6 address. A domain can have both at once.
What does an MX record do?
It specifies which mail servers accept email for a domain, with a priority value used when multiple servers are listed.
