Use the Local Record window to create and work with local DNS resource records. Local resource records are associated with a particular address context and DNS group and are used to locally resolve an FQDN rather than querying an external server.
On the SBC main screen, go to Configuration > System Provisioning > Category: Base Provisioning > DNS > Servers > DNS > DNS Group > Local Record or

The Local Record window opens showing all configured local records. Use the Address Context and DNS Group drop-down lists to filter the list.
