An SRV record is a DNS record, which is used to direct a domain to a third-party server and use it for some service different from a website. This may be a Voice-Over-IP server, a video streaming service, an instant messaging system, etc. When an SRV record is set up, you could specify an Internet Protocol that the domain name will use and the port, which will be employed to connect to the remote server. In addition, if you have many SRV records for the exact same service, you could set different priorities and weights for each and every one of them, so that you can send out the load between a number of machines. Such a record will allow you to use the same domain or subdomains under it with different providers, so you could employ it for different purposes even if you can't get all the services from one service provider.

SRV Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

A completely new SRV record can be created in just seconds for each and every domain address hosted in a semi-dedicated server from our company. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which is used to handle the semi-dedicated accounts, features a rather easy-to-use interface, so you'll be able to create any DNS record even when you have no previous experience with such matters. After you sign in to the account, you could create records with the DNS administration tool, which is a part of Hepsia and once you select SRV for the type, a few text boxes will appear. You have to enter the service, port number and protocol details plus the record value in them and the new record is going to be operational soon after that. The priority and weight options may be set to any value between 1 and 100, the default one being 10. You'll be able to adjust any one of the two in case the other company has asked you to do so. In addition, the Time To Live (TTL) value, which indicates the duration a record will remain live if edited or deleted, may also be modified from the standard 3600 seconds.
