Why WHM >> Networking Setup >> Nameserver IPs is not showing the IPs

Not necessary

Setting nameserver IP addresses in this interface is not necessary. The only thing that it does is it edits /etc/nameserverips. It does not affect the way your nameservers work or the contents of any of your domains' zone files.

I recommend that you also review my post from earlier today about this:

If it is important to you to have the settings listed, you can edit /etc/nameservips directly using an editor like vi or nano, but as you have discovered, it is not necessary to run your nameservers or host your sites.

 

Please ensure that your authoritative DNS/name servers have an A record for the sub-domains used. For example, if your name server is ns1.domain.tld, please ensure to create an A record for ns1.domain.tld, in the (parent) DNS zone of domain.tld, that points the ns1 sub-domain to the same IP address that was used to register your ns1.domain.tld DNS/name server at the domain registrar.

You may create an A (Address) record for name servers using WHM via either of the following two menu paths:

• WHM: Main >> DNS Functions >> Edit DNS Zone
• WHM: Main >> Server Configuration >> Basic cPanel/WHM Setup >> Nameservers >> Add an A entry for this nameserver
