Resolving Internal Names with the SecuRemote DNS Server
Resolving Internal Names with the
SecuRemote DNS Server
The Problem
The SecuRemote/SecureClient must resolve the names of internal hosts (behind the
security gateway) with non-unique IP addresses using an internal DNS server.
The Solution
The simplest solution is to use Connect Mode and Office Mode. Otherwise, use the
split DNS feature by defining a SecuRemote DNS Server.
The SecuRemote DNS Server is an object that represents an internal DNS server
that can be used to resolve internal names with unregistered, (RFC 1981-style) IP
addresses. It is best to encrypt the DNS resolution of these internal names. Not all
DNS traffic should be encrypted, as this would mean that every DNS resolution
would require authentication.
Configuring the SecuRemote DNS Server
1. Create a new SecuRemote DNS Server from the Objects Tree (Figure 27-2).
