Configure Nameservers

Before adding any domains, it is important to first create nameservers to ensure valid DNS zone files and proper propagation.

Configuring Nameservers involves two key steps:

  1. Create private nameservers (glue DNS records) for your domain through your domain registrar.
  2. Add the nameservers to the HiTechCloud configuration.

To add nameservers in HiTechCloud, navigate to HiTechAdmin > Settings > HiTechCloud and enter your nameservers in the ns1, ns2, ns3, ns4 fields, then click Save changes.

Alternatively, you can set nameservers via terminal commands:

hitechcloudcli config update ns1 your_ns1.domain.com
hitechcloudcli config update ns2 your_ns2.domain.com
hitechcloudcli config update ns3 your_ns3.domain.com
hitechcloudcli config update ns4 your_ns4.domain.com

Currently, you can add up to 4 nameservers.

INFORMATION

After creating nameservers it can take up to 12h for the records to be globally accessible. Use a tool such as whatsmydns.net to monitor the status.
