is something wrong with my nameservers?

| Hey folks,
I've been told by a few people that something's wrong with my nameservers. But I'm not sure what it is that's wrong.
the site => www.visualpoetry.ca
the DNSs: ns1.visualpoetry.ca / ns2.visualpoetry.ca
a zone check says:
I'm not sure how to interpret this.
Thanks for your help

| http://www.dnsreport.com/tools/dnsre...isualpoetry.ca for me provides a bit easier to read but basically..
The DNS at the registrar says ns1.visualpoetry.ca / ns2.visualpoetry.ca
The file on the server says ns1 and ns2.wablue.info. If you change the zone file entries to match the registrar you should be all good

| Hi,
Also make sure you have an NS record in visualpoetry.ca's zone file for your primary name server.
Good luck!

| Autonomous System consists of routers, run by one or more operators, that present a consistent view of routing to the external world. (Routers under a common administration). The Internet Network Information Center (InterNIC) assigns a unique autonomous system to enterprises.
The warning shows that your nameservers should be in a different AS in order to avoid any routing issues. But you can safely ignore that.

| Actually, Autonomous System numbers are allocated by IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) to the various regional registries (AfriNIC, APNIC, ARIN, LACNIC, RIPE-NCC) who in turn assign AS numbers to organizations.

| interesting... when i tried to change my nameservers at Enom, I got this error:
ns1.visualpoetry.ca is an invalid nameserver for .com ns2.visualpoetry.ca is an invalid nameserver for .com
we can't use .ca as nameservers for .com domains?

| You can, but you have to create the nameserver objects in the registry first. Your registrar should be able to do that for you.

| Yeah, contact their support to show you where in the control panel can you register your nameservers.
