Dns - D-Link DFL-1600 User Manual

Domain Name System (DNS) can be considered as a gigantic distributed
database that is used to translate from computer names to their IP
addresses.
DNS is used within the firewall whenever there is need to translate a
domain name to an IP address. Also, the DHCP server within the firewall
can hand out the DNS servers configured in the firewall to all clients that
request an IP lease. The example below describes how to configure DNS
servers in D-Link firewalls. The configured servers are used by the internal
DNS client as well as other subsystems such as the DHCP server.
