SRV Record Lookup

dev

Look up SRV records: priority, weight, port and target for a service

Runs in your browser. Only the lookup you start is sent to cloudflare-dns.com or dns.google; nothing else leaves your device. Updated on 25 Oct 2026.

SRV records tell a client which host and port offer a service, used by SIP phones, XMPP chat, Microsoft 365 and Minecraft servers among others. They live at a name built from the service and protocol, such as _sip._tcp.example.com or _minecraft._tcp.example.com, so type the whole name. Each answer is split into priority, weight, port and target, with the service named in words.

  • DNSSEC Checker Check DNSSEC for a domain: keys, the DS at the parent, signature expiry and the AD verdict
  • DNS Propagation Checker Compare one DNS record at Cloudflare and Google side by side, with DNSSEC on and off
  • WHOIS Lookup Domain and IP registration from the registry over RDAP: registrar, expiry date and status

How to look up an SRV record

1

Keep SRV selected in the Record type list; the page opens with it.

2

Type the full name in Service name, such as _sip._tcp.example.com or _minecraft._tcp.example.com.

3

Press Look up and read the priority, weight, port and target of each answer.

4

Press Copy records to copy the answers as text.

How SRV Record Lookup works

This DNS lookup asks a public resolver, Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 or Google 8.8.8.8, the same question dig or nslookup would, and shows the answer in a table. Pick one record type, or "All common types" to ask for A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, NS, TXT, SOA, CAA and HTTPS together. Every record shows its TTL in seconds and in words, because the TTL is how long any copy of it may be cached.

The records that are hard to read by eye are split into labelled fields. An SOA becomes its primary server, the contact mailbox, the serial and four timers. A CAA record becomes flags, tag and value. An SRV record becomes priority, weight, port and target, with the service named from the record's own name. DS and DNSKEY records show the algorithm by name, and the key tag of each DNSKEY is worked out so you can match it against the DS record at the parent.

A browser cannot send DNS packets itself, so the page uses DNS over HTTPS. The name you type goes to the resolver you chose, which is how it gets an answer; nothing else about you or your other searches is sent. You see what that resolver has in its cache, which can lag a recent change by up to the record's TTL. To compare two resolvers side by side, use the DNS Propagation Checker.

Frequently asked questions

Is this DNS lookup free?

Yes. No signup and no limit on how many names you look up. Each lookup is one request from your browser to Cloudflare or Google, both of which run their public resolvers free of charge. The page is supported by a few ads shown outside the tool.

What is sent when I look up a name?

Only the name and the record type, sent from your browser to the resolver you chose: Cloudflare at cloudflare-dns.com or Google at dns.google. The resolver needs them to answer. Nothing else leaves your device, and this site never sees the names you type.

What does NXDOMAIN mean?

NXDOMAIN is the DNS answer for a name that does not exist at all, for any record type. Common causes are a typo, a subdomain that was never created, or a domain that has expired. A name that exists but lacks the type asked for gets a different answer: no records.

What does SERVFAIL mean in a DNS lookup?

SERVFAIL means the resolver tried and could not get a trustworthy answer. Either the domain's own name servers did not reply, or the answer failed DNSSEC validation. The DNS Propagation Checker asks again with DNSSEC checking off, which shows which of the two it is.

Still stuck? Ask about DNS Lookup and anybody who knows can answer. No account needed.
