Re: Cisco VPN3000 DNS Problem

Hello Every body,

I really appreciate very positive responses.

Yes, I have given IP Addresses of DNS Servers under
Configuration|System|Servers|DNS and also under
Management|Usres|Groups.

I can see those when I check Configuration|Interfaces on this screen
along with IP Addresses of interfaces it shows the DNS Servers and
their IP Addresses. But these DNS Servers are not local, they are on
the internet, but I have given IP Addresses of those DNS and they are
reachable from internal and well as from VPN3000 itself by PING.

The only thing that I have not tried is setting up DNS on internal
network. Or may be I need to add some additional rule under Traffic
Management to direct or ALLOW DNS traffic out side, which apprentally
shall be allowed by default Any/inbound Forward and Any/outbound
forward rule.

Thanks again for help and your time....

Regards,

Mohammad Zahed Saeed
