Configuring The Dns Screen - ZyXEL Communications NXC5200 User Manual

Chapter 33 System
• If your ISP dynamically assigns the DNS server IP addresses (along with the
NXC's WAN IP address), set the DNS server fields to get the DNS server address
from the ISP.
• You can manually enter the IP addresses of other DNS servers.

33.5.2 Configuring the DNS Screen

Click Configuration > System > DNS to change your NXC's DNS settings. Use
the DNS screen to configure the NXC to use a DNS server to resolve domain
names for NXC system features like the time server. You can also configure the
NXC to accept or discard DNS queries. Use the Network > Interface screens to
configure the DNS server information that the NXC sends to the specified DHCP
client devices.
