How to point your domain to your server (Minecraft SRV record)

You can let your players join with your domain instead of an IP and port. You manage your domain's DNS, so you create these records in your DNS panel.

Option 1: SRV record (Minecraft, recommended)

The SRV record lets players connect with just yourdomain.com, without typing the port. Create this record:

• Type: SRV
• Name/Host: _minecraft._tcp (or _minecraft._tcp.subdomain if you use a subdomain)
• Priority: 0 · Weight: 5
• Port: your server's port (you'll see it in the panel)
• Target: your server's address without the port (e.g. ly02.astrolnodes.net)

Option 2: A record (direct IP)

If you have a dedicated IP or your server uses the default port (25565), create an A record pointing yourdomain.com to your server's IP.
