@
is a shorthand character in DNS zone files that references the root, or apex, of the zone. In your case, you would replace all instances of @
with the actual name of the zone, example.com.
, so leave the Record Name field blank in the Route 53 Management Console as you will just be creating apex records. Using @
in Route 53 outside of importing a zone file will literally create records for that label which is not the desired functionality.
Thank you! Just to clarify, if it is an @, I will leave the Record Name field blank. All others (ftp, mysql, ssh, www, mail), I will fill them in the Record Name field, is this accurate?
Also, do I keep the period at the end of values such as (1 ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.), (ghs.googlehosted.com.) when transferring them as values into Route 53 Record Name Value?
