How to Create Your Own Name Servers (Child Name Servers): Step-by-Step Guide
In this tutorial, we’ll walk you through the process of creating your own name servers, also known as child name servers. Setting up your own name server can give you more control and flexibility over your domain’s DNS management.
We will provide you with step-by-step instructions on how to create and configure child name servers through the control panel of your domain registrar. You will learn how to set up custom nameserver records, match them to your domain, and ensure proper DNS resolution.
Whether you are a beginner or an expert, this guide will help you understand the concept of a name server and empower you to create your own for advanced DNS configuration
If you would like to run your own nameserver, you can associate your nameserver's IP address with a personal nameserver using the Personal DNS Servers option in your Hosting or Domain Provider account. It allows you to create glue records for your servers.
You can input the nameserver name and IP address through your account, and this information will be submitted to the Registry.
you can register personal (private) nameservers with an IPv4 address in the following way:
Step 1
Since your domain name does have a registrar from where you purchased the domain name you would go to their site and find the place to register or record a “host name” for the domain name.
Each registrar will have a little different terminology and procedure, but what you need to do is create a hostname on your domain name and assign an IP address to that hostname.
A hostname on a domain is the third-level name. An example of a hostname is “ns1”.
Adding this to our domain name we will need to register “ns1.yourwebsite.com” to the IP address of the server where this account is located.
For example :
ns1.yourwebsite.com - 1.2.3.4
ns2.yourwebsite.com - 1.2.3.4
Please Note 1.2.3.4 is used for documentation in place of this you must use your server IP and yourwebsite.com will be your domain name.
Step 2
After we have registered our 2 custom nameservers, we need to add the host names to our DNS zone file.
This is easily done on your cPanel server either in WHM or in cPanel, depending on how your account is structured.
They would be entered as “A” records into the DNS zone file.
If you only have one server, you may need to use the same IP address for both of your custom nameservers,
HostName TTL Class Type Record
ns1.yourwebsite.com 14400 IN A 1.2.3.4
ns1.yourwebsite.com 14400 IN A 1.2.3.4
Step 3
Once both of the previous steps are completed, you should wait at least 24 hours to be sure that your DNS changes have been completely propagated and are updated everywhere on the Internet.
At this time you can either have your customers change the nameservers on their existing domains or any new customers can add your custom nameservers to their domain names when they sign up with you.
