- Fill in the following information:

- Protocol: Select the protocol for the service (usually _tcp or _udp)
- Priority: Enter a priority for the record (lower number means higher priority)
- Weight: Enter a weight for the record (used to determine which server to connect to if multiple servers have the same priority)
- Port: Enter the port number for the service
- Target: Enter the hostname or IP address of the server providing the service.
- Click "Add SRV Record" to save the changes.
