Set Up Nameservers

Portal Home > Knowledgebase > DNS > Set Up Nameservers

GoDaddy DNS Setup:

Login to your Godaddy account and click "domain manager" on the left column. Then select the domain
on the right from the list that you wish to configure custom nameservers for.

1. Setup the "domain host summary" FIRST. This is where you apply the ns1/ns2 IP addresses.

Apply ns1 and IP address. Save. Repeat for ns2. Make sure you use the IPs provided to you for each
ns1 and ns2. See screenshot example.

ns1 example:
http://pingy.us/?v=hostsukpk.png

ns2 example:
http://pingy.us/?v=hostsufif.png

2. Setup the "nameserver summary" AFTER the above is completed.

Type in your full ns1.yourdomain.com and ns2.yourdomain.com then click "ok".

If the above does not work, follow the steps below.

Please copy and paste the below in an email and submit a support ticket to your domain registrar. Many registrars do not provide the client ability to update private dns (nameservers) via their domain control panel. You will need to contact your domain registrar.

Dear Support,

Domain Account:
Domain Address:

Please update my domain nameservers with the following private nameserver
information below. It is important to note that I am using custom DNS
so the IP address per ns1 and ns2 must be applied as well.

ns1.yourdomain.com
IP Address:

ns2.yourdomain.com
IP Address:

Thank you.
