You need to create records for vanity nameservers if you want to manage your own DNS records.

 

'''NOTE:''' If you were managing your own domain at qwert.us (for example), your nameservers would be: ''ns1.qwert.us'' and ''ns2.qwert.us''.

 

Important things to keep in mind when adding vanity nameservers:

*We need to register your nameservers with a registrar. ''ns1.qwert.us'' and ''ns2.qwert.us'' have a DNS entry for ''qwert.us. ''Before nameservers can be used they need to be registered with a registrar.

*Your registrar will then inform all TLD servers that the DNS entry for ''qwert.us'' exists on one of these nameservers: ''ns1.qwert.us'' or ''ns2.qwert.us''.

*When users search or browse for ''qwert.us'', the TLD servers will query your own nameservers to find the IP address of ''qwert.us''.

*Registering your nameservers is an important step for configuring your own DNS. The process of specifying and adding your own nameservers is called 'creating a glue record'.
