DNS Server in NRPT

Hello everyone,

I've set up successfully DA in a testing environment. Only Thing is the Name Resolution. In my NRPT I've add this rule:

Suffix: "Domain.com" DNS Server: "is the DA Gateway itself"

But the DA-Gateway is no DNS Server. I cant change the entry to a real DNS-Server cause of network rules. Our network-department says that the DA Gateway will act as a DNS Proxy, so there is no need to change the entry. I cant believe that, so my question is: Is it true that the DA Gateway will forward the DNS queries to the DNS-Servers specified in the NIC of the DA-Gateway?

Thanks in advice

Hi,

Yes this is correct. The DA server will use DNS64 to proxy the dns request of the clients.

You must make sure the internal interface of the DA server has internal AD DNS server set. Do not add any DNS servers to the external interface.

So when connected to DA if you ping a server on the internal network the client will get a IPv6 address back from the DA server and the ping should work fine.

Hope this helps.

Regards
