    Hey there! Normally I would not expect there to be multiple A records for one specific domain, as that would cause issues in the DNS system. You may see something like this happening when performing a "dig" or "ping" on a domain that is using Cloudflare protection, as they mask the actual IP address and respond with multiple addresses you can connect to, but there is not a way to set something like that up with cPanel tools.

    The company i buyet hosting they dont use cloudflare and the records ar added automaticly, and they made it in case 1 ip gets attacked it just blackholes the ip and still the website works on other ips. Thay mentioned to me is made right from whm but donsent whant to tel me how, so any sugestion ?

    There wouldn't be any cPanel tools that support that type of configuration, so this is something they are doing on their end to perform a type of load balancing or redundancy. How they are doing that, I can't say.
