Host DNS

Carlos Cuestas

Hi,

 

Host objects dns do not change from ip when the host goes from a lan network to a wifi network or from wifi network to lan network, this causes the navigation accesses (social networks, streaming, etc.) to stop working when the host Has the network changed? what should I do?

    Use a dns host object instead of a host object.  The up is then determined by dns lookup

    I would be curious why you need an object definition for a device that moves around.

    When transitioning, be careful to use unique object names.   I suggest changing the object name of the host object to something of the form  "name ip".  Then give the new dns host object a name of the form "name dns".    This prevents either you or UTM from getting confused  

    Then check where used information (the blue I in the object list)  and replace each usage with the other until all usages are updated.
