Greetings,

given my domain name is example.net, and my NS servers for example.net are:

ns1.example.com
ns2.example.com

But, example.com itself's NS servers are the registrator's (for
example, godaddy's).

Under this case, I don't need any glue for ns[1-2].example.com.
But why I still need to register them in the .com NS servers?

Thanks.


You are wrong. You do need glue records. Glue records registers the ip address of your name server(s) with the root name servers.

In this case the glue records are associated with ns1 and ns2.example.com. The name servers need to be registered with the domain registrar for example.com and forwarded as glue records to the root name servers for .com.

Godaddy is a domain name registrar and does not run any root name servers. However, it is the responsibility of the domain name registrars to make sure proper glue records are maintained for any/all name servers used with a domain registered with them.
