DNS: if I delete @ A record, will * CNAME be honored? -


without boring on details, site's target must set in dns hostname , not ip.

i have cname record of *, appears @ record takes precedence, * cname ignored.

can safely delete @ record? * cname honored?

short answer yes.

longer answer dns servers give specific answer can , fall less specific. way verify cname working query entry not exist on dns server. long answer can safely remove record , well.

the record have ttl (time live). when first delete record take while removed caching dns servers. means continue records answer while, once expires cname start being used.
