1) Point domain name to DNS provider like http://dns.he.net/ (free)
2) Add A record for domain or subdomains to the IPs you want
That's really all you need to do.

Some (most?) domain registrars also provide DNS, so you just enter the ip address on their site.
Otherwise you need usually two DNS servers. You can put one DNS server on the device itself and statically enter the numeric address of that in the authority record for your domain, so that it acts as its own DNS server. Sounds crazy but it works. E.g.
want to find www.example.com
ask .com root server for authority record for example.com
get 1.2.3.4
ask 1.2.3.4 what's DNS for example.com
get 1.2.3.4
ask 1.2.3.4 what's www.example.com
get 1.2.3.4
Source(s): done that
