how to add subdomains to different NS

[spapkt]

Hi,

I'm new to DA so forgive me the lack of knowledge.

I want to add a few subdomains to different name servers. For example:
sub1.domain.com to ns1.blabla.com, ns2.blabla.com
sub2.domain.com to ns1.xxxx.com, ns2.xxxx.com
etc.

Is it enough in the DNS configuration panel to add new NS records to a subdomain or do I need also to modify A records or even something else?

Thanks,
Spapkt

The primary thing you have to do is make sure the nameservers exist at the registrar.

As long as the other nameservers are properly set up and registered, adding the NS records into the master zone file for the main domain should take care of it.

If you want to give authoritative access for second level domain names to other nameservers, all you have to do is:

1. remove ANY record regarding that subdomain
2. add all NS records, just like that: subdomain.domain.example NS ns1.other.example (TTL should be at least 12 hours, 43200 seconds)
3. if you want to use nsX.subdomain.domain.example as nameserver names, remember that you absolutely need to insert A records for those too.
4. go to the [now] autothoritative DNS panel and configure exactly the same NS records, be sure to put the first nameserver name in the SOA too.

If you have any question just ask.
