register the nameservers with your registrar, then set up a-records where your domain is hosted to the new IPs.

for example:

NS3 should point to new IP xxx.xx.xx.x
NS4 should point to new ip number 2 xx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Then just set up the nameservers on your second server just as you did with a first.

1. I add A record this this two ip with ns3 and ns4 at the first server.
2. at logic box, create child name server to this two ip.

Is that done?

yeah, then you would have to set up the nameservers on your second server the same way you did with your first server. May include editing the /etc/nameserverips file or whatever you may be using for it.

then you should ask your host for help, they should be able to set the nameservers for you

This step is not required.

All you need to do is

1. I add A record this this two ip with ns3 and ns4 at the first server.
2. at logic box, create child name server to this two ip.

You can test nameserver setup with a spare domain.
