The typical default value is usually 12 hours (43200 seconds) or 24 hours (86400 seconds). For example – a website moves to a new server; or, you add a new URL to your server. It takes 12-24 hours for the new DNS changes to take effect.
How long do DNS records last?
The Time-To-Live (TTL) value for a domain is how long a website is cached (stored in memory) on a web server. The average time is 4 hours.
How do I know if a DNS record is stale?
First, open the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) DNS snap-in and right-click the icon in the left-hand pane that represents your DNS server. Choose Set Aging/Scavenging for all zones, and select the Scavenge stale resource records check box in the Server Aging/Scavenging Properties dialog box.
