2.1.4.3 WAN IP Address Assignments
•
First WAN Interface
: This is the connection type on the interface you are configuring to connect with
your ISP.
•
Zone
This is the security zone to which this interface and Internet connection will belong.
•
IP Address
: Enter your (static) public IP address. Auto displays if you selected
Auto
as the
IP Address
Assignment
in the previous screen.
•
First / Second DNS Server
: These fields display if you selected static IP address assignment. The Domain
Name System (DNS) maps a domain name to an IP address and vice versa. Enter a DNS server's IP
address(es). The DNS server is extremely important because without it, you must know the IP address
of a computer before you can access it. The Zyxel Device uses these (in the order you specify here) to
resolve domain names for VPN, DDNS and the time server. Leave the field as 0.0.0.0 if you do not want
to configure DNS servers.
