Instructions for DNS Hosted with a Domain Registrar To update the DNS settings for your domain name, you will first need to login to your DNS host (registrar) admin console. Once you have logged in, you will then need to administer the domain name you would like to update. From here, use either the 'Zone management' or 'DNS management' tools to update the IP addresses for your domain name. Depending on the datacenter the site is hosted on, update the IP addresses with the ones below and add an SFP record: 54.246.209.120 or 54.246.209.119 United States Australia SPF (TXT) changes If the domain has no SPF record defined, you should add one with the following value (do include the quotes unless they are added automatically): "v=spf1 mx include:worldsecuresystems.com ~all" If the domain already has an SPF record, you need to include the following value: "include:worldsecuresystems.com" For detailed instructions about SPF records, please read this article. If you are unable to find the necessary tool to do so, please contact your domain registrar. Don't know who your registrar is? If you are not sure who your domain is registered under, you can use a tool such as http://whois.domaintools.com/ to look this up. Once you do a look up for your domain name, you will find your DNS registrar in the 'Registrar Name' section.
