DNS and NTP servers
DNS and NTP servers
DNS
DNS (Domain Name System) is used to translate a domain name into an IP address and back again.
We recommend using Selectel's 188.93.16.19, 188.93.17.19 or World DNS recursors, but you can use any available DNS servers.
In the OS images prepared by Selectel, all necessary settings for DNS are made. For a dedicated server, when installing the OS from its ISO image, configure OS-side DNS.
NTP
NTP (Network Time Protocol) is used to synchronize time on servers.
We recommend using Selectel NTP servers, but you can use any available NTP servers.
In the OS images provided by Selectel, all the necessary settings for NTP are made. If you are using your ISO image with your operating system distribution, configure NTP on the OS side:
