Domain Name Registration Default Settings
Default Settings for Customers
Customers of 1'st Domain Name Service under their Default Settings can set the Default Name Servers and the Default Contact Ids. Thus, any domain name registered by you would have the Default Name Servers and the Default Contact Ids pre-filled and you will not have to enter the Name Servers every time you register a domain name. Additionally, if suppose for some domain name you do not want to use the Default Contacts / Name Servers, then you have the option of changing them at the time of registration.
To avail these Default Settings, you need to follow the steps mentioned below:
Login to your Control Panel. 1
In the Control Panel, point to Domains -> Domain Registration and click Default Settings.
- Here you can specify:
Up to 4 Default Name Servers
Default Contacts Ids
InformationYou can select different types of Contacts from the Contact Type drop-down menu:
General Contact - can be used for domain names such as .COM, .NET. ORG, .NAME, .INFO, etc
COOP Contact - can be used only in case of .COOP domain names
EU Contact - can be used only in case of .EU domain names
In case of General Contact and COOP Contact type, Default Contact can be set for Registrant, Admin, Technical and Billing Contacts.
However, in case of UK Contact and EU Contact type, Default Contact can be set only for Registrant Contact since the System requires only the Registrant Contact details to be provided for .UK and .EU domain names.
You need to click the Edit link next to each Default Contact Id. A new window will open listing all the Contacts created by you for that specific Contact type (General Contact/COOP Contact/EU Contact). You may also search for a Contact by providing the Name of the Contact in the textbox and clicking on the Search button. The Advance Search option allows you to search for a Contact by Contact Id, Contact Name, Company Name, Contact Status, Contact Creation Date.
Now, to select a particular Contact as the Default Contact, click the Contact Id link for that Contact. The selected Contact will now be displayed as the Default Contact.
If you wish to add a new Contact, you need to click the Add New link, provide the Contact details and click on Addbutton. A new Contact will be created and will be selected as the default Contact automatically.
It is recommended that you mention at least 2 Name Servers here. Furthermore, in case of registering .US domain names, both Name Servers must be registered in the United States.
