3.2.7 DNS
A Domain Name System (DNS) server is like an index of IP and Web addresses.
If you type a Web address into your browser, such as www.router.com, a DNS
server will find that name in its index and the matching IP address. Most ISPs
provide a DNS server for speed and convenience. If your service provider
connects you to the Internet with dynamic IP settings, it is likely that the DNS
server IP address is provided automatically. However, if there is a DNS server
that you would rather use, you need to specify its IP address here.

(DNS) Server you; or you can specify your own preferred DNS
server IP address.

IP address as a backup. The secondary DNS will be
used should the above DNS fail.
