DNS Name

Tue Jun 29, 2010 3:35 pm

Hello,


I am trying to get any solution about my problem but no luck. Here is my problem. I have network with 6 routerboards and all are managed with RadiusManager on Server machine. I am oppening my server machine with IP address 192.168.90.120, but I want to give domain name to this machine. So i think this can be done with Mikrotik. I want when my customers open "internet.mk" to open my server machine at IP 192.168.90.120, I think that it can be done with Mikrotik Proxy but I don't know how.


Thanks.

you can redirect all DNS requests to the router, and in router's DNS static entries, add whatever DNS name you want for the router's IP

Possibly. But that sure didn't work with Windows shares. \\server wouldn't open if resolved from RouterOS DNS.
But social portal forwarding to workingday.com workes just fine... :lol:

I am using pppoe server for customers. I am not able to do the noris solution now, my network is based on mikrotik routerboards but at the moment I don't have any router to try it. Can be done with Proxy?

Proxy can only redirect existing DNS name to another DNS name. Both of them have to actually exist. To assign new DNS name to an IP address, you need DNS server

Maybe it can be done with Hotspot? I have set up hotspot with SMTP address of my Server and it work fine but work only if customer is login from hotspot with ip range of 192.168.10.xxx but I want that's to happen on pppoe customers with range of 172.16.xx.xxx.

if you have a router with hotspot, why can't you simply use the same router and use the "dns" section to do what I said?

Yes that work fine but work only for users which are logged in from Hotspot page and get ip address 192.168.10.xxx for wireless Interface, but I have pppoe server and when users log in with PPPoE connection they get IP 172.16.0.xxx and domain not work.

Look up "transparent DNS" on the Mikrotik wiki.
