AAAA Records
What's an AAAA resource record? What role do AAAA records have? Do you have to add one to your domain?
Every device that is connected to the web has a special identifier named IP (Internet Protocol) address. This includes PCs, web servers, smartphones, switches, etcetera. The pool of addresses, that was introduced originally, has been distributed, so the so-called IPv4 IP addresses are steadily getting replaced with IPv6 addresses. Every domain name that opens an internet site comes with an IP record, which is the address of the server where it is hosted. With the IPv4 system, the record is called A and it is made up of 4 groups of numbers from 1 to 255 separated using a dot, while within the IPv6 system it is called AAAA and it is comprised of 8 groups of hexadecimal numbers i.e. this sort of records use numbers from 0 to 9 and letters from A to F. A good example of an AAAA record is 2010:0c48:43d3:2142:1012:8c3a:2475:2435 and this format is designed for a substantially greater number of IPs than the IPv4 format.

AAAA Records in Shared Website Hosting
The state-of-the-art Hepsia hosting Control Panel, included with our shared website hosting, will enable you to create a new AAAA record with ease. When you are within the account and you visit the DNS Records section, you'll find all records you have for every hosted domain address or a subdomain under it. All it takes to set up the AAAA record is to click on the New Record button, to choose the domain/subdomain in question, choose AAAA after which only type in or copy and paste the IPv6 address. We have a step-by-step guide in case you have never created records for your domains, but it's not likely that you will need it as Hepsia is much simpler to use than other Control Panels available. Within an hour your new record shall be functioning and your domain address shall start resolving to the servers of the other provider. There is also an option to change the TTL value, which determines how long this record will be active if you change it, from the standard 3600 seconds to any value the other company may require.
- AAAA Records in Semi-dedicated Servers
Creating a new AAAA record is very easy with our user-friendly Hepsia hosting Control Panel, so if you host a domain address inside a semi-dedicated server account from our company and you need such a record either for it or for a subdomain which you have set up under it, you're going to be able to create it in just a few simple steps and without any hassle. Hepsia features a section devoted to the DNS records of your domains where you can find all current records or create new ones with several mouse clicks. All it takes to accomplish this is to pick the domain/subdomain you need to change, pick AAAA for the type from a drop-down menu and input the actual record i.e. the IPv6 address that the other service provider has given you. Within an hour after you save the change, the newly created record will propagate worldwide and your domain will start pointing to the third-party hosting server. If they require it, you could also modify the TTL value, which outlines the time this record is going to be operating with its current value before a new one kicks in if you make any changes in the future. - AAAA Records in Semi-dedicated Servers
