DNS Translation

hello ,

i would like to make my PPPOE users to access to my share server without typing ip address , just they type the DNS name of it


please help me in this issue


thanks…

Add static dns entry in “/ip dns static”

do not forget that clients will have to be pointed to your DNS server to resolve this name. Or all requests should be redirected to the DNS cacher. Also, dns cacher has to be configured to allow remote requests.

What if pppoe client is Mikrotik?

what about it? And how this is related to DNS and possibly NAT redirect rule to internal DNS cacher?

All you care about is to create configuration that catches DNS requests, so that router can resolve the DNS sames. At that level all interfaces are the same (except bridge if traffic goes from bridge port to bridge port w/o ip firewall

Sorry, i thought it is about pptp clients.

concerning this topic, it is same for pptp clients. Of course, if user can create some encrypted tunnel to outside of your network your DNS redirect will be useless.
