- Leave the entry for domain name blank, and enter the name of the first nameserver (e.g. ns1.nsdomain.com). Click OK.
- Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the second nameserver (e.g. ns2.nsdomain.com).
- In Add a DNS Record, choose A for record type, and click "Add".
- In domain name, enter the subdomain of the first nameserver (e.g. ns1) in the blank, and enter the IP you are assigning to this nameserver in the 4 blanks for the IP address. Click OK.
- Repeat steps 7 and 8 for the second nameserver.
- Click "Home" on the left navigation bar.
