Resolution

You can enable the resolution service to allow Synology NAS to resolve recursive queries. A recursive query occurs when Synology NAS is not authoritative for a requested domain. In this case, Synology NAS queries other domain name servers until the information is found, or until the query fails.

For example, if a client sends a query for the IP address of "synology.com" to your Synology NAS, which is not authoritative for this domain (i.e., you do not own "synology.com"), the Synology NAS will query other DNS servers or forward the query to specified DNS forwarders, and then relaying the result back to the client.

Note:
