returned for every name ending with "
.domain.name" except names that have their own
records.
TTL
This setting specifies the time to live of this record in external DNS caches.

Included IP
Address (es)
This setting specifies lists of WAN-specific Internet IP addresses that are candidates to be
returned when Peplink Balance responds to DNS queries for the domain name specified by
Host Name.
The IP addresses listed in each box asdefault are the Internet IP addresses associated
with each of the WAN connections. Static IP addresses that are not associated with any
WAN c
an be entered into the Custom IP list. A PTR record is also created for each Custom
IP’s.
For WAN connections that operate under Drop-in mode, there may be other routable IP
addresses in addition to the default IP address.Therefore, Peplink Balance allows custom
Internet IP addresses to be added manually via filling the text box on the right-hand side
and clicking the button.
Only the checked IP addresses in the listsare candidates to be returned when responding
to a DNS query.
In case of a WAN connection is down, the corresponding set of IP addresses will not be
returned. However, the IP addresses in the Custom IP field will always be returned.
If the Connection Priority field is set to Custom, you can also specify the priority of the use
of each WAN connection. Only selected IP address(es) of available connection(s) with the
highest priority, and also Custom IP addresses will be returned. By default, the Connection
Priority is set to Default.
