Using the Track DNS tools<\/h2>\n

In order to use either of the available tools under Track DNS you will need to be logged into cPanel<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Domain<\/p>\n

Using the Domain Lookup<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. \"Domain<\/a> Under Domain Lookup<\/strong>, click on the field and then type in a domain name.\n
    <\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  2. Click Look Up<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  3. \"dns<\/a>The information you will see is the Zone Information<\/i> for the domain. You can see an example of the results in the screen shot at right.\n
    <\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Using the Trace Route option in cPanel<\/h3>\n

    The Trace route option in cPanel can be used instead of having to run it in a terminal window with SSH. The trace route option here only works for the domain assigned to your cPanel. To use it, simply click on the blue Trace<\/strong> button.<\/p>\n

    Note that cPanel creation is no longer unlimited. For more information, please see cPanel Pricing Changes<\/a>. You can see the pricing that now applies to cPanel licenses. To learn more about the change, please see our FAQ on cPanel Pricing<\/a>.<\/p>\n
