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 applied after being added. To apply such record sets, you need to change the DNS servers to those provided by Huawei Cloud DNS at the domain name registrar.

The following describes how to view and change the DNS servers for a domain name.

Changing DNS Servers for a Domain Name Registered with Huawei Cloud

For domain names registered with Huawei Cloud, you can log in to the DNS console and 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 a Domain Name Registered with a Third-Party Registrar

If a domain name is registered with a third-party 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.
