sslvpn from external to office

we realize that when we sslvpn from outside back to office network, we can only RDP successfully if we use ip address instead of server name. 

if we use servername/hostname of the computer we want to RDP into, it will failed.

is there any way we can connect successfully using domain name/hostname instead of IP address when we sslvpn back to office

What version FortiOS are you using, I.e. 5.4.5? When you are on the LAN that the server is in, can you ping the server name successfully? i.e. ping server_01

config vpn ssl settings

set dns-server1 your_lan_dns_server set dns-server2 your_lan_dns_server

set dns-suffix "your_domain_suffix

end
