What are SRV Records?

SRV (Service) records specify the location of services within a domain. They define the hostname, port number, priority, and weight for services, enabling automatic service discovery and load balancing.

SRV Record Components:

  • Service: The service name (e.g., _sip, _http, _xmpp)
  • Protocol: The protocol used (_tcp or _udp)
  • Priority: Lower values indicate higher priority
  • Weight: Load balancing weight for same priority
  • Port: The port number where the service runs
  • Target: The hostname providing the service

Common Use Cases:

  • VoIP Services: SIP server discovery
  • Instant Messaging: XMPP server locations
  • Email Services: IMAP, POP3, SMTP server discovery
  • Game Servers: Minecraft server discovery
  • Web Services: API endpoint discovery

SRV Record Format:

_service._protocol.domain. TTL IN SRV priority weight port target.
