Solved: DNS server and ASA 5505

rasoftware · ‎12-04-2007

I am trying to get a ASA5505 to act as a DNS server for client request.

I have set

dns domain-lookup inside

dns domain-lookup outside

dns server-group DefaultDNS

name server 195.40.1.35

domin-name test.com

I set client via static IP with gateway of ASA and also set DNS server statically as the ASA.

I can ping internet ok but unable to resolve DNS queries.

AFAIK an ASA can not act as a DNS server or proxy DNS.

asa's cannot act as a dns server, or dns caching only server.
