The Name Servers of a domain point out the DNS servers that manage its DNS records. The IP of the website (A record), the mail server that manages the e-mails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (CNAME record) and so on are extracted from the DNS servers of the web hosting company and for any domain name to be using them and to be forwarded to their hosting platform, it should have their name servers, or NS records. If you would like to open an Internet site, for example, and you enter the URL, the Internet browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain address and the request is then redirected to the DNS servers of the webhosting provider where the A record of the website is retrieved, enabling you to see the content from the correct location. Normally a domain address has a couple of name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is simply visual.

NS Records in Cloud Hosting

If you use a cloud hosting from our company and you include a new domain inside the account or transfer an existing one from another company, you'll be able to manage its NS records easily using the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, which comes with all shared accounts. You'll be able to change the current name servers or enter additional ones for a single domain or even for many domains at a time with several clicks. This is done via the feature-rich Domain Manager tool that is a part of Hepsia and the user-friendly interface is going to make it easy to manage your domain address even if it is the first you've ever registered. It takes merely a click to see what name servers a domain uses at the moment or if they are the correct ones to direct a domain address to the hosting space on our end and with a few mouse clicks more you will even be able to register private name servers for each of the domain addresses that you own. For the latter option you can use the IP addresses of each provider that you would like the new NS records to direct to.
