Manage nameserver sets

Nameserver sets allow you to bundle multiple nameserver addresses into a single template. This ensures a consistent DNS configuration across multiple hostnames.

Create a nameserver set

You must include at least two and a maximum of five nameservers in a set.

1. Open the STACKIT Domain Portal
2. Select Nameservers Sets from the side menu under the MANAGEMENT section.
3. Click Add nameserver set.
4. Enter a Nameserverset Name (e.g., your-company-cloud).
5. Enter your nameservers (e.g., ns1.domains.stackit.cloud and ns2.domains.stackit.cloud) in the Nameserver fields.
6. Click + Add nameserver to add more fields if needed.
7. Click Save.

Set a default nameserver set

Setting a default nameserver set speeds up the registration process for new domains.

1. Open the Nameserver Sets overview.
2. Find the set you want to use as the standard and click the three-dot menu.
3. Select the option to set it as the default. The set now displays a blue DEFAULT badge.

Delete a nameserver set

You can remove name server sets that are no longer in use.

You can only delete a set if it is no longer used for delegation by any domain. If the set is the organization default, you must define a new default before deleting the old one.

1. In the Nameserver Sets overview, click the three-dot menu next to the set.
2. Select Delete.
3. Confirm the deletion. The system removes the set permanently.
