Server
Third DNS Server

Specify the IP addresses of a maximum of three DNS servers that the network can 

use. The ZyXEL Device provides these IP addresses to DHCP clients. You can 

specify these IP addresses the following ways:
From ISP - use the IP address of the corresponding DNS server specified in 

Network > WAN > Advanced.
User-Defined - enter a static IP address.
DNS Relay - use the ZyXEL Device’s IP address. In this case, the ZyXEL Device 

finds out the IP address of the DNS server (based on RFC 1877). Then, it forwards 

DNS queries from DHCP clients to this server and sends the response back to the 

DHCP clients.
None - there is no second or third DNS server.
