DNS Host Entries over L2TP VPN

CloudReader

Hello,

I've added a small number of static DNS host entries to a XG125w and they work within the local LAN. However, the hosts do not resolve when a user remotely connects through VPN (L2TP).

Any idea of how to resolve this?

I found this similar thread proposing FQDN for a SSL VPN setup, but there isn't enough detail in the posted solution for beginner me, and I'm also not sure whether the configurations are there for L2TP. (community.sophos.com/.../cannot-access-static-dns-mappings-over-vpn)

Thanks in advance!

    I know this is an old post/question but this problem drove me nuts and I finally figured it out. I hope this will help someone else. In the VPN settings for L2TP where you set DNS, you must have the primary DNS be your LAN. Here's what I did.

    Under the Network > DNS settings, I have Primary: Internet provider 1, Secondary: Internet Provider 2, Third: LAN

    In LT2P settings for DNS I have Primary: LAN, Secondary: Internet Provider 1

    The clients are configured to send all traffic through firewall.
