===== Redirecting Subdomain to specific Port via DNS =====

**Use case: Hosting multiple minecraft servers on one Server with the same IP.** 

Therefore you can use ''SRV''-records:

Add a DNS record with the following scheme to at your DNS:
<code bash>_service._proto.name. TTL class SRV priority weight port target</code>

For example this can look like this:
<code bash>_minecraft._tcp.sub1. 86400 IN SRV 0 5 5060 sub1.example.com</code>

<callout type="info" icon="true">The service for which you are trying to set up this type of DNS records must support those! (for example Minecraft does)</callout>

Some other examples from stackoverflow:
<code bash>
_minecraft._tcp.arboristal.com. 86400 IN SRV 10 40 25565 mc.arboristal.com.
_minecraft._tcp.arboristal.com. 86400 IN SRV 10 30 25566 tekkit.arboristal.com.
_minecraft._tcp.arboristal.com. 86400 IN SRV 10 30 25567 pvp.arboristal.com.
</code>
