System DNS Server Address Assignment (if applicable)
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 ZyAIR uses a system DNS server (in the order you specify
here) to resolve domain names for VPN, DDNS and the time server.
