DNS Server IP
A DNS server may be associated with many domain names. One entry should be configured for each DNS server and domain combination.
When a domain-specific DNS server fails, it fails over to the next domain-specific DNS server associated with that domain. Global DNS servers are not used for a domain, even if all of the configured domain-specific DNS servers fail.
Domain Name
One entry should be configured for each domain and DNS server combination.
