Can you explain the primary DNS record types (A, CNAME, MX, TXT) as configured within Cloudflare?

Within Cloudflare, the primary DNS record types are: **A Record (Address):** Maps a domain name (or subdomain) to an IPv4 address. Essential for pointing your website to your server. **CNAME Record (Canonical Name):** Creates an alias, mapping a domain or subdomain to another domain name, not an IP. Often used for 'www' or other subdomains. **MX Record (Mail Exchange):** Specifies the mail servers responsible for accepting email messages on behalf of a domain. Critical for email delivery. **TXT Record (Text):** Allows domain administrators to store arbitrary text values. Commonly used for email authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) or domain verification (e.g., Google Site Verification).
