Is this configuration element in web.config need internet access?

I have a web.config file for an ASP.NET 2.0 project pages that resided in
Windows Server 2003 IIS 6.0. There's a configuration element which look like:

<configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0";>

If the IIS server is blocked from the Internet access, will the above element
cause the runtime error in the browser while viewing asp.net pages since the
pages try to accessing internet address:
http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0?

If the answer is yes, would it be appropriate to remove the xmlns="
http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0"; from the configuration
element?
.
