@: directly resolve the primary domain name, such as 1260.com

Pan-resolution, matching all other domain names, such as * .1260.com

Record type

To point to the IP address provided by the website space provider, select "Type A", to point to a domain name, select "Type CNAME".

A record: address record. If you need to point the domain name to an IP address, you need to add an A record. It usually includes @ domain name and www domain name.

CNAME: if you need to point the domain name to another domain name, and then another domain name provides the ip address, you need to add the CNAME record. It will be used especially when using CDN.

NS: domain name server record. If you need to send sub-domain names to other DNS service providers for resolution, you need to add NS records.

AAA: used to specify the IPv6 address (for example: ff06:0:0:0:0:0:0:c3) record corresponding to the host name (or domain name).

MX: if you need to set up a mailbox so that it can receive mail, you need to add a MX record.
