No, you can use it as a DNS server, e.g. if you host domains for your customers and also want to be in full control of the DNS records. If someone else is doing the DNS stuff for you, then you don't have to change anything.

but if i want to do also my own dns stuff what do i have to change then ?

Whenever you register a new domain then you have to specify that your ISPConfig box should act as the primary nameserver, and before registering the domain you already have to make the DNS record in ISPConfig.
