A Record With 4 IPs?

networking

forum:ajhaji 13 years, 7 months ago

Hello,

I am trying to get Google Apps set up on a new domain. It wants me to set up an A record for my domain, but it gave me 4 IPs to set as the A record. How do I do this? Do I create a separate A record for each IP or is there a way to put all 4 IPs in a single record?

Here are the instructions:

Create four separate A records.

Like funkytastic says, use 4 A records. DNS will round-robin between them.

You might want to read the DNS and BIND book by O'Reilly. DNS is critical to most network services so you should know it well.

Thanks! I thought that was what I needed to do, but the way Google worded the instructions was a bit confusing.
