Specifying the nameserver’s DNS role in WHM
We need to specify which server is to function as a standalone server — that is, a server that only receives DNS data from the other servers in the cluster.
You do not need to link dedicated nameservers to each other.
Under Dns Role, select Standalone next to each web server’s hostname and IP. This will allow the nameserver to receive information from the web server, but not send data to it.
Setting a nameserver to synchronize data to a web server is not recommended, as it will create extraneous zones on the web server.
In most cases, a DNS-only server should never be set to synchronize to a Web server. The Web server should always be set to synchronize to the DNS ONLY server(s), and the DNS ONLY server(s) should always be set as standalone.
