Changing nameservers at Locaweb

In this panel the option is called DNS servers.

Do this before switching

Check that the zone here already has every record — mainly MX (email) and the A of your site. While the delegation moves, whoever is authoritative at that moment answers; a missing record means an address that stops working. If the domain has DNSSEC at the registrar, remove the DS record first and wait for the TTL.

Your nameservers

  • ns1.qflaryx.com
  • ns2.qflaryx.com

These are the defaults for new zones. Confirm the pair assigned to your zone on its page in the panel.

Step by step

  1. 1 Open the Locaweb panel and go to “Domínios”.
  2. 2 Choose the domain and open the DNS settings.
  3. 3 Select the option to point to external servers.
  4. 4 Enter the two Quathos Monitor servers and save.

Watch out

Email services bought at Locaweb depend on the MX records. Copy them into the Quathos Monitor zone before switching, or email stops arriving.

After saving

Quathos Monitor checks the delegation on its own and marks the zone as active as soon as your registrar publishes the change — usually minutes, up to 48 hours in the worst case. You do not need to do anything else.

Panels change without notice. If a screen no longer matches, look for “nameservers” or “DNS servers” in the domain settings — the idea is the same everywhere.
