## Prerequisites:
- Have the new name servers ready, either from your hosting order if using BigRock hosting or from your external hosting provider.

## Steps:
1) Navigate to your hosting order and copy the name servers.  
   Note: If your hosting provider isn’t BigRock, contact your provider and acquire the hosting name servers.  
2) Log in to your BigRock Customer Portal at https://myorders.bigrock.in using your credentials.  
3) Click on **Orders** in the top menu to access your order details.  
4) Select the specific order for which you want to change the name servers.  
5) Remove all existing nameserver (NS) values, enter the new nameserver values, then click **Update Name Servers**.  

## Limitations:
- You must enter at least 2 name servers.  
- You can enter a maximum of 13 name servers.  

## Warnings:
- Once you save the DNS update, it typically takes 24 to 48 hours for full global propagation. This propagation depends on internet service providers and DNS resolvers and cannot be expedited or manually controlled. During this time, some users may see updated DNS results immediately while others may still see the previous configuration.

IMPORTANT NOTE: 
Once a DNS update is saved, it typically takes 24 to 48 hours to fully propagate worldwide as the DNS changes need to update and synchronize across global servers. This process is automated and depends on internet service providers and DNS resolvers, therefore it cannot be expedited or manually controlled. During this period, some users may see the updated changes immediately, while others may still see the previous configuration until propagation is complete.
