Note that this value is only used when useDynamicNetSettings is set to false. If useDynamicNetSettings is true, the configured secondary DNS server can be found in the runtime attribute rt_DNSServer2IP.
PrimaryDNSServerSourceNoYesstringnone45 - Max Length Sets the interface whose IP address to be used as source IP address in the primary DNS server query. It is required only if the primary DNS is enabled above.
