Adding your own name servers with the Whitelabel package

Are you a reseller with the Whitelabel package but would you still like to set up your own custom name servers for your customers? In this knowledge base article you can read how to do that. If your domain is hosted externally, you must carry out steps 1 through 3 externally. 

This guide is only for resellers with the Whitelabel package enabled. Not sure whether you have this enabled? Then you can check this via this article: Whitelabel package
Using the details below anyway without whitelabel can cause downtime

You can of course use our standard Whitelabel name servers. These are already active in your control panel.

If you would still like custom name servers, you can do so via the following steps.

To start, fill in the field below with the domain name you are going to use for the whitelabel name servers:

Domain name:

Step 1

Log in to our Control Panel via mijn.host/cp.

Step 2

Create the following NS records for your domain name in our Control Panel, click on + Add new record. 

Step 3

Create the following two A records for IPv4 (optionally you can also create ns3):

ns1.domein.nl to 109.163.225.70
ns2.domein.nl to 217.180.14.41
ns3.domein.nl to 83.96.237.170

Did you not fill in the field at the top? Then replace [domein.nl] with your own domain.

Create the following two AAAA records for IPv6 (optionally you can also create ns3):

ns1.domein.nl to 2a03:5180:7:3:2e32:802f:fec2:1
ns2.domein.nl to 2a11:4881:1:9944::1
ns3.domein.nl to 2a02:348:5e6:1::b6a1

Did you not fill in the field at the top? Then replace [domein.nl] with your own domain.

Create name server

Also don't forget to click on save. 

Step 4

Next, log in to DirectAdmin as a reseller, then go to server manager and name server:

Add name server

Step 5

Now add the two name servers here, in this case those are:

ns1.domein.nl
ns2.domein.nl

Did you not fill in the field at the top? Make sure you change [domein.nl] to your own domain. 

Add name server

Your whitelabel name servers have now been created. To set these on a domain, you only need to apply them to your chosen domain. You can do this using this guide
