Name servers are responsible for directing your domain to the correct hosting server. If you want to use custom or private name servers for a domain registered with VicHost, you can easily set them up through the VicHost Control Panel.

Option 1: Using the Edit Name Servers/WHOIS Column

1. Log in to your VicHost Control Panel and go to My Domains > Registered Domains.
2. Locate the domain you want to update and find the Edit Name Servers/WHOIS column.
3. Click the Edit Name Servers icon.
4. The Manage DNS pop-up window will appear. Switch to the Manage Domain-Based NS tab.
5. Enter the name server (NS) and its corresponding IP address.
6. Click the Register button to save the new name server record.

Option 2: Using the Domain Information Window

1. Sign in to your VicHost Control Panel and navigate to My Domains > Registered Domains.
2. In the Domain column, click the domain name you want to modify.
3. The Domain Information pop-up window will open. Go to the DNS Servers & Settings tab and click Register/Edit Name Servers.
4. In the Manage Domain-Based NS tab of the Manage DNS window, enter the name server and IP address details.
5. Click Register to add the new name server record.
