DNS
Verify DNS record resolution integrity and surface propagation/config issues early.
DNS monitors verify that critical DNS records exist and (optionally) match expected values. Use these to catch accidental record deletions or propagation issues.
Use Cases
- Ensuring A/AAAA records remain pointed correctly
- Monitoring MX, TXT (SPF/DMARC), or CNAME integrity
Settings Tabs
| Tab | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Domain | Base domain / zone under observation |
| Entries | Specific record expectations (type, name, value) |
Status Labels
- Healthy (good)
- DNS Issue (bad)
Tips
- Limit the number of tracked records to the most business‑critical to minimize noise.
- Pair with HTTP monitors for end‑to‑end resolution + service checks.
