SSLVPN Split Tunnel DNS Resolution failed

fuuussiiidiel

Hi,

when using SSLVPN in split-tunnel mode, DNS resolution to internal resources is not possible. A ping returns "Host not found". When I perform a nslookup, the XGS is contacted and resolves successfully.

I've also tried several VPN clients, including the Sophos native client and SecurePoint. Unfortunately, the same issue persists. The only workaround so far is manually maintaining the local HOSTS file, which I'd like to avoid.

Does anyone else have this problem or any ideas where I might have gone wrong?

Best regards!

    Hi  Can you please confirm in the end machine for the LAN interface the automatic metric is not disabled? So system will take that interface into a precedence for DNSlookup. If the above is the situation (i.e. auto matric is diable or manually set to some higher value), please set the automatic metric value or set it to 1 to give the highest ranking. This should help to fix the issue.

    Windows uses the first DNS records associated with the highest-ranking network interface. i.e. Based on the "InterfaceMetric" value of the interface Windows machines generally send the DNS query and below is the PowerShell command to confirm:

    >Get-NetIPInterface

    Lower metric = higher priority.

    For more information please refer to below old thread - community.sophos.com/.../528699
