Hallo community,
Pfsense is my DHCP and DNS Server. There are 4 clients in my network with the following network setup.
Kali VM (DHCP)
Windows 10 Laptop (DHCP)
Windows 10 VM (DHCP reservation)
Windows Server 2012 R2 (static IP)
From the Kali VM I can ping the windows 10 VM and the lapto hostname or the FQDN but I can’t ping the Windows Server. Pinging the IP address directly works.
Error message: ping: server.at.internal: Name or service not know
I checked all network setting I am aware of on Windows Server but pfsense just doesn’t recognize the hostname.
As a workaround I also changed the server to DHCP reservation in pfsense but I am curious if it is possible to set it up without a reservation. What settings do I need to get a static IP registered in DNS?
