cPanel can look up a domain's DNS records and trace the network route to a host, which helps when you check whether DNS changes have taken effect.

Steps

  1. Log in to cPanel (for example at https://yourdomain.com:2083, or from the Ucartz client area).
  2. Open Advanced › Track DNS (called Network Tools in older versions).
  3. Under Domain Lookup, enter a domain name and click Lookup. You see its DNS records, such as A, MX and NS, as the server sees them.
  4. Under Trace Route, click Trace to see the route from the server to your own connection.
