You can use the wildcard character, an "*" (asterisk) as the left most part of a domain name, such as *.example.com. The Zyxel Device forwards DNS queries for any domain name ending in example.com to the WAN interface specified in this route.

Cancel Click this to exit this screen without saving. 8.4 Policy Route By default, the Zyxel Device routes packets based on the shortest path to the destination address. Policy routes allow you to override the default behavior and route packets based on other criteria, such as the source address. For example, you can use policy-based routing to direct traffic from specific users through specific connections or distribute traffic across multiple paths for load sharing. Policy-based routing is applied to outgoing packets before the default routing rules are applied. LTE Series User's Guide 101

Policy Route
By default, the Zyxel Device routes packets based on the shortest path to the destination address. Policy
routes allow you to override the default behavior and route packets based on other criteria, such as the
source address. For example, you can use policy-based routing to direct traffic from specific users
through specific connections or distribute traffic across multiple paths for load sharing. Policy-based
routing is applied to outgoing packets before the default routing rules are applied.

LABEL
DESCRIPTION
Active
Enable DNS route in your Zyxel Device
.
Domain Name
Enter the domain name you want to resolve.
You can use the wildcard character, an “*” (asterisk) as the left most part of a domain name,
such as *.example.com. The Zyxel Device forwards DNS queries for any domain name ending in
example.com to the WAN interface specified in this route.
Subnet Mask
Type the subnet mask of the network for which to use the DNS route in dotted decimal notation,
for example 255.255.255.255.
WAN Interface
Select a WAN interface through which the matched DNS query is sent. You must have the WAN
interface(s) already configured in the
Broadband
screen.
