How Does A Domain Name Know Which Account Is Yours In A Nameserver

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Sep 07.2015

I have registered for a domain name at Netfirms and have signed up for a web host at iPage. From my understanding, I would provide Netfirms with the Nameserver from my web host. The Nameserver is pretty generic without any account identifiable feature: ns1.ipage.com and ns2.ipage.com. My question is how does my domain name know which account belongs to me on iPage, and how does iPage serve the correct account to my domain?
