Name server registration allows you to host your domain on your own servers using glue records, which link your name server's IP address to the TLD registrar.

Requirements for Custom Name Servers:

• Own server infrastructure
• Server management experience
• Desire to host domain outside your domain provider

Adding Glue Records:

1. Gather required information:

   • Server hostname
   • IP address (from your server provider)

2. Add the record:

   • Access domain control panel
   • Navigate to DNS > Name Server Registration
   • Click "Add Hosting Record"
   • Enter hostname and IP address
   • Click "Add IP Address"
   • Save changes

Note: Changes may take 24-48 hours to propagate.

Removing Glue Records:

1. Important prerequisites:

   • Ensure name servers point to alternative target
   • Be aware of 48-hour potential downtime

2. Removal steps:

   • Access domain control panel
   • Go to DNS > Domain Name Name Servers
   • Select Name Server Registration
   • Click trash icon next to hostname
   • Save changes

Important Considerations:

• Cannot delete active glue records
• Allow 24-48 hours for changes to take effect
• Website disruption possible during transition
• Verify all information with server provider before making changes

This configuration ensures proper routing between your domain and custom name servers while maintaining control over your DNS infrastructure.
