To simplify configuration for a virtual system, a DNS
server profile allows you to specify the virtual system that is
being configured, an inheritance source or the primary and secondary
DNS addresses for DNS servers, and the source interface and source
address (service route) that will be used in packets sent to the
DNS server. The source interface and source address are used as
the destination interface and destination address in the reply from
the DNS server.
A DNS server profile is for a virtual system only; it is not
for the global Shared location.
