The downside to caching the master DNS records is because each company or ISP only updates their records every few days, any changes you make to your DNS records are not reflected between those updates. Although our DNS servers update every 15 minutes, the time between updates system wide is not standardized so the delay can range from a few hours to several days.
This slow updating of the cached records is called propagation delay because your website's DNS information is being propagated across all DNS servers on the web. Once completed, everyone can visit your new website. DNS Resources There are some useful websites which will help you see this propagation process, and show you when your website should be visible: What's my DNS? Most commonly you would use this to check if the A Record for your site has propagated out to the rest of the world.
If any locations show a red 'X', it means that location does not have any DNS information for the domain name being queried yet. If it has been longer than 48 hours, your site is not loading, and the two sites above do not show available DNS records, there may be further issues with the configuration of your site.

Things change. Web servers change IP addresses, mail is moved from in-house to an external filtering company, even nameservers change IP addresses from time to time.
That means that, if we cache the results of the lookup of bbc. A typical, but by no means universal, value is , which is the number of seconds in 24 hours. That is used to determine how long it is safe for other DNS servers to cache the result of the lookup. If you go to the BBC website at , and if the bbc.
The TTL value for a domain is arbitrary, and can range from 0 not recommended to something in excess of 60 years also not recommended. What you should do a couple of days in advance is reduce the TTL value, perhaps to When you connect to the internet through your Internet Service Provider ISP , your ISP will provide you with two or more resolvers responsible for handling the recursive DNS requests sent by your computer as you use the internet. Since most DNS records don't change very often, most resolvers are configured to cache or store the results of previous lookups and respond to subsequent requests from the cached results for a period of time until the resolver decides that the cached copy is too old to be trusted.
Propagation is the period it takes for the record cached on all resolvers everywhere to expire. One technique to reduce the time it takes for changes to propagate is to reduce the TTL value in the current zone before making changes; however, the change in the TTL on the record itself will take the length of time specified in the original TTL value to propagate before propagation period is lowered for further changes.
Also, some ISPs configure their resolvers to ignore the TTL value specified in the record altogether and cache the record for a length of time that they specify instead.
Some resolvers are configured to cache records for up to 72 hours, although most are configured less. Ultimately, time resolves propagation issues. Additionally, most computers cache DNS, which can cause the computer to "remember" the old IP address for up to 48 hours until the next time it updates. Browser caching has absolutely nothing to do with DNS; however, this can still cause you to see your old page content even after changing your DNS.
Browsers will cache a copy of the page content previously viewed by the browser. You can clear your cache to get a fresh copy from the server.
