Populate 2 DNS objects with the desired DNS server addreses and then pin them to the DNS section for number 1 & 2.

Then you'll want to make sure you use those same objects for the DHCP servers you create, unless you want to create a DNS relay, then you'd use the LAN IP as the DNS server for the DNS server in the DHCP server config.

( You'll also need a SAT/NAT combo for each of the public DNS servers, but there's more on that in the help file for the DFL)

If you have Dual WAN's you'll want a DNS thats reachable from either ISP's networks. I suggest using a publicly hosted DNS server like open DNS.
