An SRV record is intended to provide information on available services for your systems, most commonly used with SIP configuration. SRV records have a unique system for naming.
You can manage your SRV DNS records via DNS Zone Editor. To add a new record choose the type of record as SRV:
If your domain is pointing elsewhere by NS records, your DNS Zone management is moved to the provider you pointed the domain to and should be managed from there.

The name value should follow this structure: _service._protocol
, for example:
