DNS static wildcard entry

RouterOS General

Hi,

I want to redirect all entries to *.local to a reverse proxy that I have in my network, is that possible with routeros?

thanks

The internal dns proxy doesn’t give you this ability. Yes, it supports wildcards, but unfortunately, it does not support “NS” records, which are necessary to redirect dns requests in this manner.

You can create an L7 protocol matcher which inspects udp/53 for queries matching *.local and configure a dnstnat rule which matches this L7 rule and redirects matching packets to the internal server. Personally, I would recommend just using the internal server as your resolver host. This is much simpler and does what you want.
