## Ziel
22+
23+
Sie möchten Ihre Website über einen bestimmten Domainnamen erreichbar machen? Hierzu muss Ihr Domainname auf die IP-Adresse des Dienstes verweisen, auf dem sich Ihre Website befindet (Webhosting, Dedicated Server, VPS, etc.). Konfigurieren Sie hierzu die aktive DNS-Zone Ihrer Domain mit einem DNS-Eintrag vom Typ A.
24+
25+
**Diese Anleitung erklärt, wie Sie einen DNS-Eintrag vom Typ A zu einer von OVHcloud verwalteten DNS-Zone für Ihre Domain hinzufügen.**
26+
27+
> [!primary]
28+
>
29+
> Befolgen Sie [diese Anleitung](/pages/web_cloud/domains/dns_zone_edit), um einen DNS-Eintrag vom Typ A einer OVHcloud DNS-Zone zu ändern oder zu löschen.
30+
31+
## Voraussetzungen
32+
33+
- Sie haben einen [Domainnamen](/links/web/domains).
34+
- Sie nutzen eine diesem Domainnamen zugeordnete DNS-Zone bei OVHcloud.
35+
- Sie haben Zugriff auf Ihr [OVHcloud Kundencenter](/links/manager), im Bereich `Web Cloud`{.action}.
36+
37+
## In der praktischen Anwendung

>
41+
> Das Hinzufügen, Ändern oder Löschen von DNS-Einträgen in einer aktiven DNS-Zone kann zu Dienstunterbrechungen führen. Im Zweifelsfall wenden Sie sich an einen [spezialisierten Dienstleister](/links/partner).
42+
43+

49+
5. Überprüfen Sie die Zusammenfassung, und klicken Sie auf `Bestätigen`{.action}. Es dauert bis zu **24** Stunden, bis die Änderung im DNS-Netzwerk voll wirksam ist.
