Setting up the network

When a DNS server is selected to send the DNS query, and no response is received within a short time, another DNS server is selected by continuing the process as described in the previous paragraph. But if the previous server replies to the DNS query, another DNS server is not selected, regardless of whether response is positive or negative.

By default, when a DHCP client in the private zone sends requests for an IP address and the private zone DHCP server is being used, the DHCP server on the private zone sends its interface IP address as the DNS server in the DHCP response. In this way, all of the DNS queries are automatically forwarded to the security gateway
