I want to ask about local DNS settings in mikrotik, I want to redirect domain “install” to some local IP address, says 192.168.0.5, but when I add it to DNS setting, local network does not recognize this setting, I don’t have problem if I change “install” to FQDN, says “install.local”, but I need domain/hostname “install” to be recognized as local, because when I use “install.local” or “192.168.0.5” the software I use forced the security restriction because “install.local” or “192.168.0.5” is considered internet, and not intranet
I do not have option to change machine name at “192.168.0.5” to “install”,
So my question is, how to redirect domain “install” to 192.168.0.5
[EDIT]
I can do this by adding DNS directly on client machine by add line in etc/host file, but that is not option because we have more than 300 client computer
The software is ClickOnce, this is a deployment technology that enables you to create self-updating Windows-based applications that can be installed and run with minimal user interaction.
Applications that are deployed using ClickOnce technology are restricted to a set of permissions and actions that are defined by the security zone.
So the way windows determines the domain fqdn is trhrough dhcp-server. On mikcrotik dhcp-server fill in domain to local. then when you type install it will automatically assume your looking for install.local.
or at the local layer you can just edit /etc/hosts.
