DNS Filtering Questions

There doesn't seem to be much documentation and details about the new DNS Filtering service. I have a few questions:

  1. What are the differences between Basic and Advanced DNS Filtering in EPSS and APSS subscriptions?
  2. Does it work with internal DNS server when used as a forwarder? I assume that at least full reporting is lost as all queries would come from the internal DNS server.
  3. How does it compare to dedicated DNS filtering services? I saw that it uses Neustar under the hood, but no idea how it compares to their native service or other services like Umbrella, WebTitan etc.

    I'll add one more question. What's the difference between DNS filtering and content filtering? I have both services enabled and it seems to me that their functionality is largely duplicated. DNS filtering allows you to obtain many extensive reports and statistics.
