Well, one is the master and the other is a slave for any locally defined domains, but otherwise both get the same setup. You can tell them your ISP DNS servers are root servers, so you do not have to keep track of roots yourself. Everything asked of your servers they cannot answer is passed to the ISP without want-recursion, and the answers come back directly, ask this root, which you cache for as long as it is marked, so you do not become a pest.
Since basic DNS is insecure, you want to bone up on secure dns products.

net::dns::resolver::recurse
Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse(3)
NAME
Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse - Perform recursive dns lookups
SYNOPSIS
use Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse;
my $res = Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse->new;
DESCRIPTION
This module is a sub class of Net::DNS::Resolver. So the methods for Net::DNS::Resolver still work for this module as well. There are just
a couple methods added:
hints
Initialize the hint servers. Recursive queries need a starting name server to work off of. This method takes a list of IP addresses to use
as the starting servers. These name servers should be authoritative for the root (.) zone.
$res->hints(@ips);
If no hints are passed, the default nameserver is asked for the hints. Normally these IPs can be obtained from the following location:
ftp://ftp.internic.net/domain/named.root
recursion_callback
This method is takes a code reference, which is then invoked each time a packet is received during the recursive lookup. For example to
emulate dig's "+trace" function:
$res->recursion_callback(sub {
my $packet = shift;
$_->print for $packet->additional;
printf(";; Received %d bytes from %s
",
$packet->answersize,
$packet->answerfrom
);
});
query_dorecursion
This method is much like the normal query() method except it disables the recurse flag in the packet and explicitly performs the recursion.
$packet = $res->query_dorecursion( "www.netscape.com.", "A");
IPv6 transport
If the appropriate IPv6 libraries are installed the recursive resolver will randomly choose between IPv6 and IPv4 addresses of the
nameservers it encounters during recursion.
If you want to force IPv4 transport use the force_v4() method. Also see the IPv6 transport notes in the Net::DNS::Resolver documentation.
