name: DefaultTTL
parameters:
- ttl
parameter_types:
ttl: Duration
---
DefaultTTL sets the TTL for all subsequent records following it in a domain that do not explicitly set one with [`TTL`](../record-modifiers/TTL.md). If neither `DefaultTTL` or `TTL` exist for a record,
the record will inherit the DNSControl global internal default of 300 seconds. See also [`DEFAULTS`](../top-level-functions/DEFAULTS.md) to override the internal defaults.
NS records are currently a special case, and do not inherit from `DefaultTTL`. See [`NAMESERVER_TTL`](../domain-modifiers/NAMESERVER_TTL.md) to set a default TTL for all NS records.
{% code title="dnsconfig.js" %}
```javascript
D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
DefaultTTL("4h"),
A("@","1.2.3.4"), // uses default
A("foo", "2.3.4.5", TTL(600)) // overrides default
);
```
{% endcode %}
The DefaultTTL duration is the same format as [`TTL`](../record-modifiers/TTL.md), an integer number of seconds
or a string with a unit such as `"4d"`.
