52.6.4 PTR Record
A PTR (pointer) record is also called a reverse record or a reverse lookup record. It is a mapping of
an IP address to a domain name.

The following table describes the labels in this screen.
52.6.6 Domain Zone Forwarder
A domain zone forwarder contains a DNS server’s IP address. The ISG50 can query the DNS server
to resolve domain zones for features like VPN, DDNS and the time server. A domain zone is a fully
qualified domain name without the host. For example, zyxel.com.tw is the domain zone for the
www.zyxel.com.tw fully qualified domain name.

LABEL DESCRIPTION
FQDN Type a Fully-Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of a server. An FQDN starts with a
host name and continues all the way up to the top-level domain name. For
example, www.zyxel.com.tw is a fully qualified domain name, where “www” is
the host, “zyxel” is the third-level domain, “com” is the second-level domain, and
“tw” is the top level domain. Underscores are not allowed.
Use "*." as a prefix in the FQDN for a wildcard domain name (for example,
*.example.com).
IP Address Enter the IP address of the host in dotted decimal notation.
