Detailed explanation-1: -An AAAA (pronounced quad A) record is a DNS record that maps to an IPv6 address. AAAA records are available for all customers. Currently, IP addresses are based on version 4 of the internet protocol, where there are 4 sets of numbers ranging from 0-255.
Detailed explanation-2: -With an AAAA record, you can point a domain to an IPv6-address. It is the same as an A record, but instead of pointing to an IPv4-address, it’s used to point to an IPv6-address. An AAAA record isn’t very common, because most services still use IPv4 addresses, but as the use of Ipv6 grows, so will AAAA records.
Detailed explanation-3: -The DNS AAAA record matches a domain name with an IPv6 address-similar to A records, which do the same for IPv4 addresses.
Detailed explanation-4: -An AAAA record maps a domain name to the IP address (Version 6) of the computer hosting the domain. An AAAA record is used to find the IP address of a computer connected to the internet from a name.
