LABEL	DESCRIPTION
Create New Object	Use this to configure any new setting objects that you need to use in this screen.
General Settings
Enable	Select this to enable this DNS load balancing rule.
DNS Setting
Query Domain Name	Type up to 255 characters for a domain name for which you want the ZyWALL to
	manage DNS load balancing. You can use a wildcard (*) to let multiple domains
	match the name. For example, use *.example.com to specify any domain name that
	ends with “example.com” would match.
Time to Live	Enter the number of seconds the ZyWALL recommends DNS request hosts to keep
	the DNS entry in their caches before removing it. Enter 0 to have the ZyWALL not
	recommend this so the DNS request hosts will follow their DNS server’s TTL setting.
Query From Setting
IP Address	Enter the IP address of a computer or a DNS server which makes the DNS queries
	upon which to apply this rule.
	DNS servers process client queries using recursion or iteration:
	• In recursion, DNS servers make recursive queries on behalf of clients. So you
	have to configure this field to the DNS server’s IP address when recursion is
	used.
	• In iteration, a client asks the DNS server and expects the best and immediate
	answer without the DNS server contacting other DNS servers. If the primary DNS
	server cannot provide the best answer, the client makes iteration queries to other
	configured DNS servers to resolve the name. You have to configure this field to
	the client’s IP address when iteration is used.
Zone	Select the zone of DNS query messages upon which to apply this rule.
