Hello ASF.
Any server that manages a specific zone should have an SOA record.
The structure of the SOA record is something like this:
1. Primary master name server for this zone
2. Email address of the administrator responsible for this zone (replacing the '@' with a '.' character).
3. Other fields (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOA_record)
For example:$TTL 10 mycompany.com. IN SOA ns1.mycompany.com. admin.mycompany.com. (1652365942 7200 1800 604800 300) mycompany.com. IN NS ns1.mycompany.com. mycompany.com. IN NS ns2.mycompany.com.Then, in a standardized format, you should have an NS record associated with the info provided in the SOA record.
Anyway, the SOA record is only a documentary record and doesn't have any effect on normal communication, which uses an NS query instead.
