Select the List of Domains tab then click on the domain name to be used for your name servers.
Select the Manage Domain tab then click on Manage DNS.
Click on the Click here link.
Scroll down and click on Manage Nameservers.

2. If you have more than one name server, click on Add Record for another row of hostname and IP address boxes.
Once name servers have been added, Update and Delete buttons are made available to edit your existing name servers.
Name Servers Require Glue Records
Please note that the zone file for your domain name must contain A records for your name server's hostnames. These A records are referred to as the glue records. The glue records must be created on the authoritative name servers for the domain name. The authoritative name servers are the name servers that you have your domain pointed at in the Name Servers section under the Manage Domain tab in your Hover account.
