How Do I View and Change the DNS Servers of a Domain Name?
Scenarios
The DNS server addresses of a domain name determine the DNS service provider for domain resolution on the Internet.
After you configure record sets for a public domain name and its subdomains, you need to check whether their DNS server addresses are those provided by Huawei Cloud DNS at the domain name registrar. If the DNS server addresses are not those provided by Huawei Cloud DNS, the domain names will not be resolved.
The following are operations for you to view and change the DNS server addresses of a domain name.
By default, Huawei Cloud DNS is used to resolve domain names registered with Huawei Cloud.
Changing the DNS Server Address of the Huawei Cloud Domain Name
For domain names registered with Huawei Cloud, you can log in to the DNS console to check whether they are correctly resolved.
Changing the DNS Server Addresses for Domain Names Registered with Other Service Providers
If a domain name is registered and managed by another registrar, go to the domain name management page of the registrar and change the DNS server addresses to specified ones.
Change the DNS servers for the domain name in the system of the original DNS service provider. For details, see the operation guide on the official website of the DNS service provider.
