A Global DNS Configuration contains all the settings required to run a host as a DNS server.  A DNS config profile is configured and applied locally to the host. All configuration settings are inherited from the Global DNS Configuration into the DNS config profile by default. If there are no changes made to the DNS config profile, it would be an exact copy of the Global DNS Configuration. For more information, see Global DNS Configuration

For example, an organization's secondary DNS server (host) located in the head office may need to accept zone transfer requests from the cloud. However, the second DNS server (host) at the branch office may need to be configured to accept zone transfer requests from an external primary server. The DNS config profile and the Global DNS properties are applied together as shown in the diagram:

BloxOne Cloud is the Primary DNS Server. The settings are configured in the Global DNS Configuration. You can specify that the settings be inherited and keep the BloxOne Cloud as the primary DNS Server, as shown in host 2. Alternatively, you can override the settings and configure an external primary server.Image Added
