DNS Issue on SSLVPN after 7.0.1-5161 Update

jacobpjacobp Newbie ✭
in Entry Level Firewalls

Hi,

After updating to 7.0.1-5161, I now have to include the DNS suffix of a hostname when I'm on the SSLVPN in order to connect to it. For example, say I have a file server called 'fileserver'. I can no longer connect/ping it by server name alone. I can only reach it by IP address or 'fileserver.contoso.com'. Any idea of what could be causing that? I have not made any DNS changes recently.

    I may have fixed this. I included our DNS suffix in Network > SSL VPN > Client Settings and added it to DNS Search list. It looks like this setting exists mostly for phones, but I can now connect to hostnames without the suffix. We never had any suffix included in this setting before so I'm not sure what made this stop working after the firmware update.
