Summary
The DNS CNAME record is used as an alias for domain names that share a single IP address, and is used in lieu of an A record. It is possible to point a CNAME record to another CNAME record, but it is inefficient because it requires multiple DNS lookups before the domain can be loaded. MX and NS records cannot point to a CNAME record, but they must point to an A record or an AAAA record.
