What are NS Records?
NS (Name Server) records define which authoritative name servers are responsible for a domain. They are critical for DNS resolution and ensure queries are directed to the correct DNS servers.
How NS Records Work:
- User queries a domain
- Resolver checks the domain's NS records
- Resolver sends follow-up queries to the listed name servers
- Name servers return authoritative DNS records
NS Record Components:
- Name: The domain or zone
- Type: NS
- Value: Hostname of the authoritative name server (e.g., ns1.example.com)
- TTL: Time To Live - how long resolvers cache the record
