: Subdomains are the nameservers of the domain itself As I have had some research, it is a bit hard for domain distributors to set the nameservers to subdomains of the same domain, for example:

Domain: example.com
Nameserver 1: ns1.example.com
Nameserver 2: ns2.example.com
What we are actually do, is the host a VPS for a domain, and we want to use its subdomains (that they are also linked to two separate public IPs) as nameservers.
However it has taken already a month, and we are still having problems. Could anyone suggests:
Why technically it is so different than of using another domain for nameservers (as in that case it would take around 12 hours)
Do you suggest to use another domain? If yes please share the technical reasons too.
What if I use IPs for the nameservers directly?

I would like to thank closetnoc for the comments, and I got my answer from them, so I mention the summery here again as the answer:
It is never a good practice to serve a domain with its own subdomains as its nameservers, as if the domain itself has a failure, there is no recovery for the same.
The only time you can use the mentioned situation is when you use them as a backup of other nameservers.
For using IPs as nameservers, the only drawback is that they are hard to remember and are so static, if IP fails, you need to reconfigure all the domains for your hosting with new nameservers.
