How to add Nameservers to a Sub-Domain

You require root access to be able to add Nameservers to a sub-domain.
If you have a shared hosting service, please open a Support Ticket so we can complete this for you.

To add nameservers to a subdomain in WHM, follow these steps:
  1. Log in to WHM as the root user.

  2. In the search bar, type "DNS Zone Manager" and select the corresponding option.
