When you created the domain you can have the name servers. 
In here I don’t have any registered domain for myself. So when I have the domain name I have to go to my domain management panel and add these Name servers to there.

If I have a domain and if I added the NS records to my Domain then I can launch my website using my own Domain. But here at the moment I don’t have one. 

Pay Attention: When you are adding NS records pay attention to the dot end of the each NS record

This is the end of the Lab 10.
