The following steps are a basic outline for configuring your zone(s) for DNS Unlimited's secondary DNS service:

1. Set your primary name server(s) to allow zone transfers to our name servers:

   ns1.dnsunlimited.com - 206.212.247.94
   ns2.dnsunlimited.com - 64.120.176.243
   ns3.dnsunlimited.com - 69.164.207.210 
   ns4.dnsunlimited.com - 74.117.58.251
   ns5.dnsunlimited.com - 178.79.148.169
   
   
2. Add your zone(s) to DNS Unlimited using the control panel at https://www.dnsunlimited.com/
3. Verify that your zones are transferring properly using the DNS Log tab on the control panel.
4. Add NS records to your zone(s) for each of our name servers.  For BIND, use the following format:
   
   example.com. IN NS ns1.dnsunlimited.com.
   example.com. IN NS ns2.dnsunlimited.com.
   example.com. IN NS ns3.dnsunlimited.com.
   example.com. IN NS ns4.dnsunlimited.com.
   example.com. IN NS ns5.dnsunlimited.com.
   
   
5. Add our name servers to your zone(s) at your registrar.
