21.6.2 Inserting a Name Server Record
Click Insert in the System screen to open this screen. Use this screen to insert a name server
record. A name server record contains a DNS server’s IP address. The ZyWALL can query the
DNS server to resolve domain names for features like VPN, DDNS and the time server. A
domain zone may also be included. 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 second-level domain, and “com.tw” is the top level domain.
