Modify Alibaba Cloud DNS Servers
For domain names registered with Alibaba Cloud, the DNS is generally set to Alibaba Cloud's DNS server addresses by default. If you have your own DNS server and need to modify the domain's DNS to your own, or to another service provider's DNS, you can refer to this article for the operation.

Domain Resolution Related Issues
1. After adding the resolution, the time for it to take effect varies depending on the update speed of DNS servers worldwide. It can be as fast as a few minutes or as slow as several hours or even a day or two. 2. If the resolution never takes effect, you can try clearing the DNS cache by going to „Start > Run > cmd“, then entering „ipconfig /flushdns“. 3. The same record can only resolve to one target. For example, you cannot add two „www“ records pointing to different IP addresses.
