<h3>Using a Secondary Nameserver</h3>
<p>If your TLD requires you to have two separate nameservers, you can either set up a secondary (aka &ldquo;slave&rdquo;) nameserver or, alternatively, set up <a href="#" onclick="return show_panel('external_dns')">external DNS</a> and ignore the DNS server on this box. If you choose to use a seconday/slave nameserver, you must find a seconday/slave nameserver service provider. Your domain name registrar or virtual cloud provider may provide this service for you. Once you set up the seconday/slave nameserver service, enter the hostname of <em>their</em> secondary nameserver:</p>

<p class="text-warning">This is an advanced configuration page.</p>
<p>Although your box is configured to serve its own DNS, it is possible to host your DNS elsewhere &mdash; such as in the DNS control panel provided by your domain name registrar or virtual cloud provider &mdash; by copying the DNS zone information shown in the table below into your external DNS server&rsquo;s control panel.</p>
<p>If you do so, you are responsible for keeping your DNS entries up to date! If you previously enabled DNSSEC on your domain name by setting a DS record at your registrar, you will likely have to turn it off before changing nameservers.</p>
