If AAISP is running your DNS, then the nameservers will be:
[[File:Couk.png|link=:Category:Domains]]
primary-dns.co.uk
secondary-dns.co.uk
 
However, you are free to run your own authoritative DNS servers for your domain, here is how to set your own nameservers.
 
If you have recently transferred in a domain to AAISP you may need to update the nameservers to be either the AAISP ones or your own ones.

*Optionally A and AAAA records at the top level for glue records
*Click Send, to send the changes to Nominet
 
==In more detail:==
