Global DNS
When the cellular network grants the IP address to the device, it includes the IP
addresses to its DNS servers. Global DNS allows you to override the carrier’s
DNS settings for all connected devices. This is useful when the connected
devices need to use a private network.
Note: If there are no alternate DNS defined, the default is the cellular network DNS sever.
