We can configure DNS from AWS Management Console as follows:
- Log in to AWS Management Console, go to the Route 53 dashboard, and then go to the Hosted Zones page.
- Click on the Create Hosted Zone button.
- Fill in the domain name, a comment, and the type, and then click on Create:
The type denotes whether the hosted zone is public or private. This cannot be changed later.
AWS will autogenerate the NS and SOA records, along with the hosted zone:
- Go to your other domain registrar (where you registered this domain) and update the preceding nameservers. Note that it can take some time for the DNS changes to propagate.
