Differences Between A and CNAME Records

The `A` and `CNAME` records are the two common ways to map a hostname (“name”) to one or more IP addresses.
There are important differences between these two records.

Understanding the differences

The `[A` record](https://support.dnsimple.com/articles/a-record) points a name to a specific IP.

If you want `blog.dnsimple.com` to point to the server `185.31.17.133` you’ll configure:

blog.dnsimple.com. A 185.31.17.133

The CNAME record points a name to another name instead of to an IP. The CNAME sourcere
presents an alias for the target name and inherits its entire resolution chain.

How we use them

Let’s use an example:

blog.dnsimple.com. CNAME aetrion.github.io.

aetrion.github.io. CNAME github.map.fastly.net.

github.map.fastly.net. A 185.31.17.133

We use GitHub Pages, and we set blog.dnsimple.com as a CNAME of aetrion.github.io, which is
a CNAME of github.map.fastly.net, which is an A record pointing to 185.31.17.133. This
means blog.dnsimple.com resolves to 185.31.17.133.

Which one to use

An `A` record points a name to an `IP`. A `CNAME` record can point a name to another `CNAME` or to an `A` record.

Open the domain panel

Navigate to the domain panel by clicking the “Sites” on the left side menu. Then when you have
that page open you will see a link to “Connected Domains”
on the top of your page, please click that.
