You can create your own name servers for a Windows dedicated server by creating sub domains and then applying IP addresses to the sub domains, then applying the domain to the sub domains. You also need to configure this on your Windows server. To create your own name servers for a Windows server, please follow these instructions: Make sure you have two IP addresses. If you do have two IP addresses, please follow these instructions. Can I order additional IP Addresses? You need to create two sub domains: 1. Log in to the 1&1 Control Panel using your Customer ID OR domain name and your password at: http://admin.1and1.com If you have only one package, you will land on the Administration page. If you have more than one package, select the Packages tab at the top. Select the package in question to reach its Administration page.
3. Select the domain. Click the arrow next to New and select Create a Subdomain.
4. Insert the name for your sub domain. (ex: ns1.domain.com or ns2.domain.com) Click OK

Please follow steps 1-4 a second time to create a second sub domain. If you named the first sub domain as ns1, create the second one as ns2. An example of two common sub domains for this would be: ns1.domain.com ns2.domain.com The sub domains will be created in approximately 3 hours. Once the sub domains have been created, you want to change the A record for the two sub domains to your two IP addresses. 1. Log in to the 1&1 Control Panel using your Customer ID OR domain name and your password at: http://admin.1and1.com If you have only one package, you will land on the Administration page. If you have more than one package, select the Packages tab at the top. Select the package in question to reach its Administration page.
3. Choose your sub domain and click the arrow next to DNS and select Edit DNS Settings.
4. Choose Other IP address under Advanced Settings. Enter the one of the two IP addresses. Click OK

Follow steps 1-4 for the second sub domain you created. Except this time set the A record to the second IP address that you have. Wait 6 hours for the A record to propagate and change for the sub domains. After this has changed, you want to set the reverse mapping of the IP addresses to their respective hostnames. (ex. 1.2.3.4 goes to ns1.domain.com) 1. Log in to the 1&1 Control Panel using your Customer ID OR domain name and your password at: http://admin.1and1.com If you have only one package, you will land on the Administration page. If you have more than one package, select the Packages tab at the top. Select the package in question to reach its Administration page.
