dns hosted on utm with dhcp on windows server

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?

Thanks everyone! That was some very helpful recommendations. I was hoping not to have to set up a second dns zone for my public wifi but it looks like that will be the only way if I want the UTM to log their hostnames. Am I putting a lot of strain on the utm by using it as the dns server for all the clients? Shouldn't it be the same amount of strain as the AD DNS server making the request to the utm? Thanks again! Also BAlfson, I'll check that thread out!
