DNS Help

I am trying to link my wordpress registered domain to external hosting.
My hosting company gave me this information.Zone file for brinkhrv.com
$TTL 14400
@ 86400 IN SOA ns1.webhostingireland.ie. admins.hostingireland.ie. (
2013032502 ; serial, todays date+todays
86400 ; refresh, seconds
7200 ; retry, seconds
3600000 ; expire, seconds
86400 ) ; minimum, secondsbrinkhrv.com. 86400 IN NS ns1.webhostingireland.ie.
brinkhrv.com. 86400 IN NS ns2.webhostingireland.ie.
brinkhrv.com. 86400 IN NS ns3.webhostingireland.ie.brinkhrv.com. IN A 91.210.235.140
localhost.brinkhrv.com. IN A 127.0.0.1
brinkhrv.com. IN MX 0 brinkhrv.com.

webdisk IN A 91.210.235.140————————————————————–
But wordpress needs the information in this format:
Five types of records are allowed: MX, TXT, CNAME, A, and SRV. We use a minimalistic format for each record type, shown below. TTL is set automatically. When validating, we only check that your records can be safely saved.MX <pref> <host>
TXT <text>
CNAME <subdomain> <host>
A <subdomain> <IP>
SRV <_service._protocol> <priority> <weight> <port> <domain>
Sample records
MX 10 MAIL1.EXAMPLE.COM.
MX 20 MAIL2.EXAMPLE.COM.
TXT v=spf1 include:mail.example.com ~all
CNAME autodiscover EXCHANGE.EXAMPLE.COM.
A webmail 1.2.3.4
SRV _xmpp-client._tcp 10 10 5269 example.com.————————————————————–
Normally I would just change the nameservers for the domain but there doesn’t seem to be a way to do this in wordpress.
Can you tell me what I should enter in the wordpress domain dashboard to get it to work?
Thank you.The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
