Description

This article describes that custom DNS servers are not supported with L2TP tunnels.

Scope

FortiGate.

Solution

- Custom DNS servers are not supported with L2TP tunnels. Users connected via L2TP will always retrieve FortiGate system DNS servers (under # config sys dns)

- Users can add the internal DNS server in the global system DNS options (Network -> DNS).

However, FortiGate will use that DNS server to resolve all DNS queries coming from all users, not only L2TP.
