Local DNS on SOHO MK3

#1

I would like to resolve a custom hostname to a local IP address.

I’ve tried adding the following to Local DNS Records under Network->LAN->DNS Proxy Settings:
Host name: serve.local
IP address: 10.32.20.101

However, ping on a connected host does not resolve the IP address.

In case it matters: under WAN connection settings I have assigned 1.1.1.1 to DNS Server 1, and 1.0.0.1 to DNS Server 2 and unchecked “Obtain DNS server address automatically”.

Many thanks,
Bernhard

You need to make sure the client devices is using SOHO MK3 LAN IP as DNS server in-order the Local DNS Records to work.

Thank you for the response! Unfortunately I do not seem to be setting the DNS server correctly.

I tried setting the DNS server on the LAN (specifically a VLAN) side to the router address on this VLAN, specified in Network->LAN->IP
Server 1: 10.95.10.7
Server 2: 1.1.1.1

On the WAN side I left them at
1.1.1.1
1.0.0.1

However, the name is still not resolved (from a computer with IP 10.95.10.101).

Help is most appreciated!

I am having the same problem
local DNS records are not resolving at all, whether the entry specifies an internal ip on the LAN or a known external ip address
