What is the problem with my dns server?

Hey! When I type in the domain networkchuck.coffee and start the simulation, I only see DNS protocols. I expect to see HTTPS protocols. I do not understand the problem. I would be very happy about your advice?

Hello,

 

where do you type 'networkchuck.coffee', in the web browser of a laptop ?

Hey! I am sorry for the delayed response. Yes I am typing that in the web browser of a laptop. But I can not reach the website and instead of https protocols when starting the simulation I can only see dns protocols.

First, IP needs to be resolved to name; so DNS is query first; then you can see HTTP protocol.  (u see ARP as well).

if you type in IP of 23.227.38.65, it will open up a website for coffee. this is good sign; this means HTTP server is fine but DNS server is not.  you cannot open a website using host name like networkchuck.coffee, it is likely DNS side issue. 

I think you are missing www record on the DNS server.  Solution is to add A record of www. chuck  .coffee to match IP of www server.  Now u should be able to open www or ping by www. name .com record.

Note: this only works from Johnny PC but not others, why? there is secondary error...but this one you should be able to solve it yourself.

Hello,

 

you need to add the IP address of the DNS server to the client, enable the DNS server, and create A records. Check the two screenshots, I also revised the file...
