Router not getting DNS server using ppp ipcp dns accept

mark.mcsherry · ‎03-03-2007

Hello,

I'm trying to get my router to accept the DNS server sent through from the service provider. I've configured the commands below, which are connecting fine and also getting an IP ok.

I'd like to be able to get a DNS server address from the service provider and then make this available to users of the DHCP scope on the router.

Anyone got this working?

thanks,

Mark

Hi,

Many thanks. The link is an excellent resource for dynamic DNS, which I'm also looking at.

In my case, I just want to be able to accept the DNS server sent by the service provider as part of the PPP negotiation. .

Any ideas for me on that one?

thanks in advance,

Mark
