GET /domains/{domainName}/nameservers

Get the current name servers used to serve the Domain Name System (DNS) records for the domain. Name servers are a set of 0 to 13 distinct hostnames that may be assigned to a domain. Once the name servers are modified using this command, the changes are sent immediately to the registry. However these changes may take several hours to propagate depending on the individual zone files and possible registry zone file publication delays.
