 +====== Delegate Subdomain to a Different Nameserver (cPanel) ======
  
 +There are many examples where you may need to have a specific subdomain's DNS be managed by a different nameserver. cPanel makes this very easy.
 +
 +Log into **WHM**.
 +
 +Click on **DNS Functions**, then **Edit DNS Zone**.
 +
 +Choose the **domain** that you want to create the **subdomain** for.
 +
 +Once you are in the screen, scroll to the bottom.
 +
 +{{:cpanel:editdns.png?1000|}}
 +
 +Enter in the subdomain and select NS as the type of record. For the hostname, put in the nameserver's hostname followed by a **.**
 +
 +<note warning>If you do not put the **.** at the end of the hostname, it will not work as intended.</note>
 +
 +{{:cpanel:editdns2.png?1000| completed record}}
 +
 +Hit save at the bottom and the new record will be in place.
