DESCRIPTION

 

First DNS Server

Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information (and

 

Second DNS

the ZyXEL Device's WAN IP address). The field to the right displays the (read-

 

Server

only) DNS server IP address that the ISP assigns.

 

Third DNS Server

Select User-Definedif you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS

 

 

server's IP address in the field to the right. If you chose User-Defined, but leave

 

 

the IP address set to 0.0.0.0, User-Definedchanges to None after you click

 

 

Apply. If you set a second choice to User-Defined, and enter the same IP

 

 

address, the second User-Definedchanges to None after you click Apply.

 

 

Select DNS Relay to have the ZyXEL Device act as a DNS proxy. The ZyXEL

 

 

Device's LAN IP address displays in the field to the right (read-only). The ZyXEL

 

 

Device tells the DHCP clients on the LAN that the ZyXEL Device itself is the

 

 

DNS server. When a computer on the LAN sends a DNS query to the ZyXEL

 

 

Device, the ZyXEL Device forwards the query to the ZyXEL Device's system

 

 

DNS server (configured in the WAN > Internet Connection screen) and relays

 

 

the response back to the computer. You can only select DNS Relay for one of

 

 

the three servers; if you select DNS Relay for a second or third DNS server, that

 

 

choice changes to None after you click Apply.

 

 

Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not configure

 

 

a DNS server, you must know the IP address of a computer in order to access it.
