DNS Server Address Assignment (if applicable)
DNS (Domain Name System) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice 

versa. The DNS server is extremely important because without it, you must know the IP address of a 

computer before you can access it. The ZyXEL Device uses a system DNS server (in the order you 

specify here) to resolve domain names for VPN, DDNS and the time server.

First DNS Server
Second DNS 

Server
Third DNS Server

Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information. (In this 

case, the ISP assigns the WAN IP address too. See Network > WAN > Internet 

Connection.) The field to the right is read-only, and it displays the IP address 

provided by your ISP.
Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a DNS server. You might get it 

from your ISP or from your network. Enter the IP address in the field to the right.
Select None if you do not want to use this DNS server. If you select None for all of 

the DNS servers, you must use IP addresses to configure the ZyXEL Device and 

to access the Internet.
