Application-Specific DNS

check12
I am finally moving my main machines onto the new Sophos UTM network I set up. One issue I came across revolves around DNS at an application level.

I have a computer that normally uses the DNS provided by the UTM. However, there is one application on the computer that has a different set of DNS servers hard coded into it. 

It was working perfectly on my old setup, but now it looks like I am not able to utilize the application-specific DNS like I had in the past (i.e. these are US DNS servers from a VPN host and the machine is no longer getting a US connection through them).

Does the UTM force all DNS traffic to go through it? Is there a way to still accomplish this task on the UTM at an application level? What steps would I take?

Thanks so much.

    If you are using the web filtering proxy in transparent mode, then go to Web Protection > Filtering Options > Misc.  In the Transparent Mode Skiplist section, you can skip proxying for hosts based on source or destination.


    That allowed it to work. Thanks so much. I just have to figure out the specific destinations to whitelist now.
