What is this: Private name server registration (howto for resellers).
Benefits: you will get own name servers instead of WestNIC's ns1.westnic.net and ns2.westnic.net; whois search will show your name servers, not ours.
Let's begin!
1. Get two free dedicated IPs from WestNIC. You need to state in the support ticket: https://support.westnic.net that you need two free IPs for private name servers. Example of valid ticket:
"Hello, I need two free dedicated IPs for my private dns: ns1.mydomainname.com and ns2.mydomainname.com". As soon as you get free IPs, proceed with other steps below.
Note: Domain hosts are not required unless you intend to set up your own DNS server. We recommend that you DO NOT use this tool unless you have a thorough understanding of this process. Please DO NOT enter "www" as your host name. This is not a redirection service--it will not direct your domain to an IP address.
To Register Your Own Name Servers Using the NEW Domain Control Center
Log in to your Account Manager.
From the Domain Names menu, select Manage Domains. The Domain Control Center opens.
In your list of domain names, click on the domain name you want to modify. The details for the selected domain display on the page.
In the Host Summary section, click View/Modify Detail.
Under Set Hosts, enter your nameserver Host names, along with their corresponding IP address, and click OK.Allow 4-8 hours for .COM and .NET domains and about 24-48 hours for all other domain extensions for the name servers to be registered.
