Solved: Re: DNS through VPN

SysAdminj · ‎01-25-2005

I have created an IPSEC VPN Tunnel to my PIX, I am using the Cisco VPN Client on my laptop to connect in.

The problem I am having is that I can not access anything by hostname, I have to use IP Addresses.

Is there a way that I can set up the pix to forward me my internal DNS server addresses?

Hi,

Yes. you can.. you have to configure the dns server's ip address on the vpn group command.

vpngroup abc dns-server 192.168.1.10 192.168.1.11 (backup)

For more information see the PIX firewall command reference for vpngroup:

hope this helps.. all the best..
