This displays the identity of the interface you configure to connect with your ISP.
Zone This field displays to which security zone this interface and Internet connection will
belong.
IP Address This field is read-only when the WAN interface uses a dynamic IP address. If your
WAN interface uses a dynamic IP address, enter it in this field.
First DNS
Server
Second DNS
Server
These fields only display for an interface with a static IP address. Enter the DNS
server IP address(es) in the field(s) to the right.
Leave the field as 0.0.0.0 if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not
configure a DNS server, you must know the IP address of a machine in order to
access it.
DNS (Domain Name System) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding
IP address and vice versa. The DNS server is extremely important because without
it, you must know the IP address of a computer before you can access it. The
ZyWALL uses a system DNS server (in the order you specify here) to resolve
domain names for VPN, DDNS and the time server.
