ISP DNS Server Addresses: If you were given DNS server addresses, fill in the following:

name. Your ISP might call this your account, user, host, computer, or system name.
If your ISP’s mail server is mail.xxx.yyy.com, then use xxx.yyy.com as the domain name.

Overview of the Planning Process
The areas that require planning when using a firewall that has dual WAN ports such as the UTM
include the following:
Inbound traffic (port forwarding, port triggering)
Outbound traffic (protocol binding)
Virtual private networks (VPNs)
The two WAN ports can be configured on a mutually-exclusive basis to either:
auto-rollover for increased reliability, or
load balance for outgoing traffic.
