• Host Name

Leave the Host Name space empty if you wish to set this DNS record for yourdomain.com, enter www in the Host Name space if you wish the DNS record to be set for www.yourdomain.com.

If you wish to have a DNS record set for both the www and non www versions of your domain forward you will need to create a DNS record for each of these.

For MX and SPF records the Host Name field will be left blank.

• Address

The A record will be set to the IP address you wish for this to resolve to.

The CNAME record will be set to a canonical name you wish for this to resolve to.
