DNS via VPN [Router RV320]

[Wojtek]

Hello,

I have got RV320 router. I made VPN IPSec tunnel between our two networks.

Local IPs are not important, but they are: 10.110.1.* and 10.110.2.* with 255.255.255.0.

Everything is working except one thing.

When I ping any remote computer from local network using IP I get answer.

If I ping the same computer using its hostname, hostname can not be resolved.

Question is: How can I make hostname->IP resolving for VPN IPSec tunnel?

I put remote gateway in DNS2 for DHCP of local network, but it doesn't work.

Could someone give me a hint what to set in this router/VPN configuration, to use hostnames of remote network in local network?

Thank you in advance!

You need to configure DNS values in the VPN internal group policy.

I'm sorry I didn't wrote this clear.

It is lan2lan VPN connection between two routers.

There is no need to use any application to get into remote network.

It just is. I hope it is not like this, that I need to 'do something' on every local computer to have DNS resolving for remote network.

I used to have Draytek router, where I had the same lan2lan VPN connection and that router gets default ability for DNS resolving via VPN (there wasn't even place for switching that option on, it just was available).

I hope RV320 could also have the same functionality on itself?

ip name-server x.x.x.x to resolve DNS queries.

Thank you for reply, but it is RV320 and it seems that it hasn't got such a command :(

[SSH]

RV32X> ip name-server
COMMAND OR FILENAME NOT FOUND

So it won't be an answer for this router :(

Or maybe I'm doing something wrong...

[Austin Sabio]

Try it in the global config mode

RV32X(config)# ip name-server

Thanks for trying help me, but I think my knowledge is not enough to know what to do next.

I search what is 'global config mode', but I can not find 'what to do, to enter into this mode'. I found 'config t' command, but it doesn't work on rv320.

I'm rather home user, not IT specialist, who wants to make it working as I want :)

I do not know if you mean something like this?

[SSH]

login as: cisco
cisco@10.113.2.1's password:
RV32X> config t
COMMAND OR FILENAME NOT FOUND
RV32X> ip name-server
COMMAND OR FILENAME NOT FOUND
RV32X> global config mode

[Wojtek]

and...

RV32X> enable
COMMAND OR FILENAME NOT FOUND

RV32X> configure terminal
COMMAND OR FILENAME NOT FOUND

RV32X> help
CLI command support following function:
access-list Add/modify/delete access rule or change access rule's priority.
