Change of nameservers on domain

Name server or also DNS (Domain Name Server) is the basic helper for domain directing. On name server server are saved needed DNS records (for example A record, CNAME, MX records and so on), thanks to them on domain will be shown chosen website, or the message is forwarded to correct provider of e-mail solution.

How to change individual DNS records is described in article Settings of DNS records.

Which name servers am I using now?

Every domain you own, can have set different name servers of different providers. To make individual settings of DNS records in our control panel to have influence on domain, the domain have to use name servers of Active24. 

What name servers the domain currently use can be found on WHOIS of selected TLD, or by using so called DNS lookup tools, for example MXtoolbox or G SUIT toolbox of Google company. 

Name servers of Active24

Name servers currently provided and used by ACTIVE 24 are these:

Set of name servers (NSSET):

- NSS:GLOBE-SGLO000001:1

Is used only for .CZ domains.

Primary DNS:

- alfa.ns.active24.cz
  IPv4: 81.95.96.2
  IPv6: 2a02:4a8:ac24:100::96:2
 

Secondary DNS:

- beta.ns.active24.cz 
  IPv4: 81.0.238.27
  IPv6: 2001:1528:151::12


Tertiary DNS:

- gama.ns.active24.sk 
  IPv4: 93.188.1.228

Change of NSSET at .CZ domain

At CZ domains it's impossible to set directly our name server, but is used so called set of name servers (NSSET). If you need to set different name servers then ours, then you can find out the right NSSET at provider of hosting or e-mail services. But it can happen, that for needed name servers the NSSET is not created and it's necessary to create one - you can continue by this article How to create NSSet (set of nameservers).
