22.1 Legacy Series / Re: DNS aliases not resolving
« on: March 15, 2022, 01:22:24 am »
I got the same addresses via console over opnsense.
But these addresses don't show up in the Alias Overview(IP entries). I tried different forms URL, URLS. Only got the error alias resolve error outlook (error fetching alias url outlook.microsoft.com) The url was only an example, because all domains which I tried ending up in this error. So in short, when adding domains into aliases for bringing the rules more dynamic against changing IPs, the IP wouldn't resolve.
Well, I tried for diagnostics the DNS lookup via webgui - works fine like the dig command. But always getting the fetching error when resolve it via aliases. Since now, no further diagnostics because I don't know where to start.
But I guess in general it's working, because else my clients and the firewall itself couldn't resolve it correctly. But where does the error hit in ? Script error ? False internal configuration?
Code: [Select]
# dig +short outlook.microsoft.com
40.112.72.205
40.76.4.15
40.113.200.201
13.77.161.179
104.215.148.63
