In this article, we will explain how you can enable or disable the advanced DNS Zone Editor in WHM.

When you are handling cPanel as a reseller, you can choose whether individual cPanel accounts should access the Advanced DNS Zone Editor. The Basic DNS Zone editor offers A and CNAME records without modifying default records.
