specify multiple DNS servers, they are used in sequence. For example, after the
first server is used, the next request is forwarded to the second server and so on.
If you have a static IP address with your ISP or are using the appliance behind
another security gateway device, select Static IP and DNS for your connection
type. You can specify your static IP address and the IP addresses of the DNS
servers you want to use for name resolution.
Before configuring the appliance to connect with your static IP account, gather
the following information:
Static IP, netmask, and default gateway addresses
■
Contact your ISP or IT department for this information.
DNS addresses
■
You must specify the IP address for at least one, and up to three, DNS
servers. Contact your ISP or IT department for this information. You do not
need DNS IP address entries for dynamic Internet accounts or accounts
where a DHCP server assigns the IP addresses.
If you have a static IP address with PPPoE, configure the appliance for
PPPoE.
