Use a hostname for most records. PTR also accepts an IPv4 or IPv6 address.

How to read a AAAA record check

AAAA records map a hostname to an IPv6 address.

When to use this lookup

Use this check when enabling IPv6, debugging dual-stack reachability or confirming that an old IPv6 destination has expired from recursive caches.

Example

example.com AAAA 2606:2800:220:1:248:1893:25c8:1946
Answer shape
One or more colon-separated IPv6 addresses, each with its own TTL.
Common failure
A stale AAAA record keeps sending IPv6-capable clients to an endpoint that no longer accepts IPv6 traffic.

A record, CNAME record

Troubleshooting checklist

  • Verify the host actually listens on the published IPv6 address.
  • Check A and AAAA together when only one address family fails.
  • Remove stale AAAA records when a service is no longer reachable over IPv6.
