If there is a private DNS server that services the VPN, type its IP address here.
The ZyXEL Device assigns this additional DNS server to the ZyXEL Device's
DHCP clients that have IP addresses in this IPSec rule's range of local addresses.
A DNS server allows clients on the VPN to find other computers and servers on
the VPN by their (private) domain names.
Local IP addresses must be static and correspond to the remote IPSec router's
configured remote IP addresses.
Two active SAs can have the same configured local or remote IP address, but not
both. You can configure multiple SAs between the same local and remote IP
addresses, as long as only one is active at any time.
In order to have more than one active rule with the Secure Gateway Address
field set to 0.0.0.0, the ranges of the local IP addresses cannot overlap between
rules.
If you configure an active rule with 0.0.0.0 in the Secure Gateway Address field
and the LAN's full IP address range as the local IP address, then you cannot
configure any other active rules with the Secure Gateway Address field set to
0.0.0.0.

address on the LAN behind your ZyXEL Device. When the Local Address Type
field is configured to Range, enter the beginning (static) IP address, in a range of
computers on your LAN behind your ZyXEL Device. When the Local Address
Type field is configured to Subnet, this is a (static) IP address on the LAN behind
your ZyXEL Device.
When the Local Address Type field is configured to Range, enter the end (static)
IP address, in a range of computers on the LAN behind your ZyXEL Device. When
the Local Address Type field is configured to Subnet, this is a subnet mask on
the LAN behind your ZyXEL Device.
Remote IP addresses must be static and correspond to the remote IPSec router's
configured local IP addresses. The remote fields do not apply when the Secure
Gateway IP Address field is configured to 0.0.0.0. In this case only the remote
IPSec router can initiate the VPN.
Two active SAs cannot have the local and remote IP address(es) both the same.
Two active SAs can have the same local or remote IP address, but not both. You
