Changing DNS Servers for a Public Domain Name

Scenarios

The DNS servers of a domain name indicate the DNS service provider of that domain name.

If you want to configure record sets for a domain name hosted on Huawei Cloud DNS, its DNS servers must be provided by Huawei Cloud DNS. If they are not, the record sets will not be active after you add them. To make such record sets take effect, you need to change the DNS servers to those provided by Huawei Cloud DNS in your domain name registrar's system.

The following are operations for you to change the DNS servers of a domain name.

Changing DNS Servers for a Domain Registered with Huawei Cloud

For domain names registered with Huawei Cloud, you can log in to the Domains console to check their DNS settings.

1. In the domain name list, click the domain name to go to its details page.
2. View and change the DNS servers of the domain name.

   If your domain name is hosted on Huawei Cloud DNS, change the DNS servers to those provided by Huawei Cloud DNS.

   • ns1.huaweicloud-dns.eu
   • ns2.huaweicloud-dns.eu

Changing the DNS Servers for Domain Names Not Registered with Huawei Cloud

If a domain name is registered with another domain name registrar, go to the system of that registrar and change the DNS servers to those provided by Huawei Cloud DNS.

For details, see the operation guide on the official website of the domain name registrar.
