WAN Interface

This displays the identity of the interface you configure to connect with your ISP.

Zone

This field displays to which security zone this interface and Internet connection will 
belong.

IP Address

Enter your WAN IP address in this field. 

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 ZyWALL uses a system DNS server (in the order you specify 
here) to resolve domain names for VPN, DDNS and the time server.
