11.3 CNAME (Canonical NAME)
This type allows mapped domain names to have one website address or above available for web browsers at
the same time. Type CNAME is capable of mapping a type “A” mapped domain name, yet it is not
recommended mapping a type “CNAME” domain name.
Ex. Type CNAME as Alias is to map up real domain name. (Table 11-2, Figure 11-3)
Domain Name Type IP Address
host23.airlive.com A 61.11.11.14
host5.airlive.com CNAME host23.airlive.com
Table 11-2 Mapping table of domain name and CNAME
Figure 11-3 Mapping table of Domain name and CNAME
The table above indicates that host5.airlive.com (Alias) is mapping to host23.airlive.com (domain name).
Thus, pinging host5.airlive.com under DOS mode will have the result of 61.11.11.14.
