# In-house DNS

> DNS hosted on Noxity hosting plan nameservers. Records are managed inside cPanel via the Zone Editor.

When a domain points at a Noxity hosting plan, the DNS lives on the plan's cPanel nameservers and you manage records through cPanel's Zone Editor. Nothing extra to set up; the moment you add the domain to a plan, it gets a zone and starts answering queries.

## How to use it

<Steps>
  <Step title="Add the domain to your hosting plan">
    From cPanel, attach the domain as an addon, parked, or primary domain. The exact flow is in [Domains in cPanel](/web-hosting/cpanel/domain-management/domains).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Point the domain at the plan's nameservers">
    In the [domain panel](/domains/management/panel), set the nameservers to the ones cPanel printed when you added the domain. The change pushes to the registry; resolvers pick it up after the previous record's TTL.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Manage records in the cPanel Zone Editor">
    Add or edit A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV, and CAA records under [Zone Editor](/web-hosting/cpanel/domain-management/zone-editor). Same toolset as any cPanel host.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## When to pick this option

* You have or are planning to buy a Noxity hosting plan.
* The site and the DNS should stay together so a plan migration moves both at once.
* You want everything in cPanel, not in two separate panels.

If you don't have a hosting plan, [Free NS](/domains/management/ns/free) covers standalone DNS hosting. If you want to keep DNS at a third party (Cloudflare, Route 53, …), see [External DNS](/domains/management/ns/external).
