Nameserver configuration
Submit the nameserver configuration here
Important
Nameservers option
Submit the Nameservers you wish to set for the domains in the bulk update, this will update the domains to the nameservers submitted in the Nameserver fields. To add more nameservers then there are fields available, click the + Add nameserver option
DNS template option
Select the DNS-template option, lookup and submit the DNS-template you wish to setup and the domains in the bulk update will be updated to the Realtime Register nameservers (ns1.yoursrs.com & ns2.yoursrs.com) using the DNS-template you have selected. Put a checkmark in the box in front of the Link option to link the DNS-template to the domains in the bulk update, this means that the settings of the template are adopted to the domain on update of the DNS-template. If unlinked, the domain DNS-settings are static and updating the DNS-template will not update the zone of the Domain.
No nameservers
Selecting the no nameservers option will remove nameservers from the domains and effectively means no nameservers are set for the domains at all once the bulk update completes. Once a bulk update to No nameservers is completed, the status inactive will be applied to the domains as it they no longer have active nameservers. Keep in mind that some registries do not allow no nameserver delegation for domains. For more information on the TLD's that have a minimum nameserver requirement, go our TLD metadata.
