There is a dedicated page which lets you create Name Servers. If you use this page to create name servers than DNS Zone for this domain will also be created.
This page is a simply utility to create name servers in a user friendly way. DNS zone for this domain will automatically be created, all you have to do is fill all the fields, example values can be:
