How can you configure a sub domain to an independent namesever allowing it to function like an independent domain?
Delegate.
Code:subdomain IN NS other.example.com other IN A 111.222.333.444
simpler explanation? is there a way using whm or cpanel?
What did you not understand?
How does one "Delegate"
You add a type NS record for yor sub domain, pointing to the server you want to delegate to. It doesn't get any simpler.

As I showed in my original reply, create an NS record for the subdomain, pointing to the external DNS server.
You need your domain with DNS access. Free 1 is http://freedns.afraid.org/
Then you can just create sub domains like that. works quite well if your domain host does not offer DNS with the domain like za.net or co.za
other.example.com should be a name server
