Hi @tli,

You can configure FortiGate as DNS server and create DNS record as your need. Please refer to this document for more information "https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/7.4.1/administration-guide/960561/fortigate-dns-server"

You can configure FGT as a DNS server from GUI after enabling DNS Database from Feature Visibility.

@ebilcari sorry for the late , i lost my password and recovered successfully.

Listen , i did all of that , iam using Forigate 100D - but both ping test and nslookup do not give right response . Iam seeing some docs explain it s recommended in the dhcp server within the fotinet , you have to set the " same as interface" on Dns server option , but anyway i also tried this with no success ... Just to show you my tries... in case you have completed this , please post a reply .

Thanks !
