== Propagation ==
One of the features of DNS is the way that records get cached around the globe.  Meaning that any changes to existing records have to ripple around.  Generally changes take up to 72 hrs (3 days) to take effect.
However, you can change the [[Acronyms#T|TTL]] of record to ensure that it needs to be refreshed from its authoritative name-server more frequently than normal, ensuring that any changes apply more quickly.
