Hello there,
I am trying to setup mini Lab with OPNSense. I am able to do Name Resolution from OPNSense, but not able to do it from the client VM. From the client, I am able to ping external IP addresses.
I have attached screenshots for my testing and how my mini-lab is configured. I would really appreciate if anyone can guide me to get the Name Resolution issue fixed.
Thanks,
FMustafa
What IP adress have you set in DHCP ip4 page for DNS Servers? If nothing, try 10.10.10.10 (your gateway where you can ping).
Hi Lar.hed,
Thanks for your prompt update. I double-checked and I confirmed that I have the DNS set already as 10.10.10.10 on the DHCP4 leases. I also tried the same from another client machine (Win10) and I get the same behavior (ping by IP works but does not work using FQDN).
Another test I just made is to type-in the IP address Manually on the clients with the same results as well (ping by IP works but does not work using FQDN).
I finally just tested by using 8.8.8.8 as DNS server on my DHCP leases and that solved the name resolution issue from the clients.
Thanks again for your help.
Good that it works - it looks like your DNS server settings is maybe off. Running Unbound Plus maybe?
