Delete a DNS record

Last update: October 05 2026Open in Markdown

You can delete a DNS record or delete an individual value from a record.

If a network is connected to a DNS zone and you delete an automatically added A or AAAA record, the record will be added again when changing the IP address or port domain name in the network. Automatically added records are marked with the tag Auto.

You can check if a network is connected to a zone in the control panel: in the top menu, click Products → Cloud Servers → Private DNS → DNS Resolvers tab → in the network row, the DNS zone field.
