dns hosted on utm with dhcp on windows server

llama
Hi!

I'm new to sophos utm 9.2 and am having an issue getting the host names to show up for clients that are connecting through my public wifi.  They are receiving their dhcp requests through my server on windows server 2012.  They are in a different subnet then the rest of my network with 172.17.0.0 and they are using the utm as a dns server.  It looks like the dns server is not storing their host names and when I do a lookup by host name from the utm it isn't able to find them.  Is there a way to have the utm store dns entries for the clients?

    If you are using ActiveDirectory it's a common recommendation, that clients should use AD DNS servers, and only AD server does public DNS resolution 

    a) via UTM as forwarder ( my recommendation)

    or

    b) directly via public dns forwarders (works too)

    UTM should in best case do DNS forwarder in small, non AD enviroments...
