Frequently asked questions

What exactly is DNS and why does it matter?
expand_more
The Domain Name System (DNS) is the internet’s “phone book” that translates human-friendly domain names (like example.com) into IP addresses machines understand. It ensures that when a user types your domain, they reach the correct server.
Can I keep my current registrar and just use Glesys DNS?
expand_more
Yes. You can maintain your domain registration where it is and switch only the nameservers to Glesys – using our DNS for resolution while retaining your registrar.
How quickly do DNS changes take effect?
expand_more
Propagation time depends on TTL (time-to-live) settings and caching by other resolvers. While many changes apply within minutes, full global propagation may take longer. The globally distributed structure helps minimise delay.
What features are available for advanced users?
expand_more
Advanced users can edit records via our DNS editor or API, create custom record types (A, AAAA, MX, CNAME, TXT and more), automate workflows and integrate DNS changes into infrastructure scripts – providing full flexibility
What happens if one of your DNS servers goes down?
expand_more
Our DNS service is built across multiple redundant locations, so if one nameserver or region fails, other servers continue answering DNS queries – ensuring your domains remain resolvable and your services unaffected.
