Secondary NIC DNS Option


Recommended Posts

I have a pfSense with a VPN connection, unraid has 5 NICs 4 in 802.3ad for the LAN and the other NIC is used for VPN.

My network is segmented as follows:

LAN: 10.0.0.0/24

WLAN: 10.0.1.0/24

VPN LAN: 10.0.2.0 < all the above are setup to access VPNLAN but it cannot access them back.

 

My problem is under network for any other than the main NIC or Bonding I can't set the DNS & I need to have some dockers and VMs on the VPNLan, to solve this I have to use an external DNS i.e 8.8.8.8 which is not a favorable option as I'd rather have everything passes through the firewall.

 

VMs work fine without an issue but dockers are my main problem here, I manually tried adding a dns server under /boot/config/network.cfg but some dockers will not function properly.

This could be a future request but as the NIC can already get an IP though DHCP, why not the DNS as well.
