To edit an existing zone record, click on the record line in the DNS Records list.
The Edit Record dialog will open, allowing you to fill in record details.
Fill in the Host, Value, TTL, and comment if desired.
An option exists to "Skip Validation" - check to select if you wish to bypass validation for the record.
If previous versions of the record exist, the revision log will be visible under "Record revisions".
