services / Azure / DNS NS record set

An authoritative DNS NS record set within an Azure public DNS zone. NS records delegate authority for the zone or a child subdomain to a set of nameservers.

DNS record data is published and resolvable by design (public); NS delegation control hands full authoritative control over an entire namespace subtree.

Deleting the NS delegation record set breaks resolution for the delegated subdomain, making everything hosted under it unresolvable (DoS).
