5.4 How to Configure DNS Inbound Load Balancing

This example shows you how to configure the ZyWALL to respond to DNS query messages with the
least loaded interface's IP address. The DNS query senders will then transmit packets to that
interface instead of an interface that has a heavy load.
This example assumes that your company's domain name is www.example.com. You want your
ZyWALL's WAN1 (202.1.2.3) and WAN2 (202.5.6.7) to use DNS inbound load balancing to balance
traffic loading coming from the Internet.
In the CONFIGURATION > Network > Inbound LB screen, select Enable DNS Load

Balancing. Click Apply.
