DNS question

[gamewarden3006]

RTN66U Firmware 3.0.0.4.220

ok this is probably simple but I do have a question about the DNS settings on this router.

I am on DSL, under the WAN tab on left I have checked no to connect to DNS servers automatically and I have entered the 2 server I wish to use. Simple enough.
what is confusing me though is that there is another place to put DNS into under the LAN tab on left then under the DHCP tab on top. there is a place for DNS / WINS. it says if you leave it blank then the router does the DNS...

so am I correct in thinking that if I leave the one under LAN blank that the router will simply pass route the DNS request to one of the 2 servers I specified under the WAN tab?

If not, what am I missing?

Thanks for any help

Yes, you are correct that if you leave the DNS on the LAN DHCP tab blank, then DNS service will be supplied by the DNS servers that you give on the WAN Internet Connection tab.
