domain name was at least 60 days ago

• The domain name is not on hold with the current registrar

Delegate the DNS of the domainTo begin using our services without domain transfer, you must delegate (assign) the domain name to our servers.

What is DNS delegation?

Essentially it is saying "I am passing on authority for this domain to another collection of name servers, go ask them for the details."

For example, "com" is a domain that delegates all (or perhaps almost all) of its subdomains to other name servers. When a request is received at a "com" name server for "google.com", the "com" name server responds with NS records pointing to Google's name servers.

How to delegate a DNS?

The customer should contact the current domain registrar and ask them how to delegate the DNS of the customers domain to LuxCloud’s name servers:ns1.luxcloud.netns2.luxcloud.net
