I am currently on a corporate network. My computer's network settings:
- IPv4 address: 172.29.13.196
- Netmask: 24
- Gateway: 172.29.13.230
- DNS: 172.29.11.231 (not on the same subnet, but I know it is normal)
I try to resolve a local PC address by its name (maybe NETBIOS name?) and it works:
livy@ubuntu:~$ nslookup pc141.mycompany.local
Server: 127.0.0.53
Address: 127.0.0.53#53
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: pc141.mycompany.local
Address: 172.29.13.141
I've set up an OpenWrt router with the following configurations:
config interface 'wan'
option ifname 'eth1'
option proto static
option ipaddr 172.29.13.73
option netmask 255.255.255.0
option gateway 172.29.13.230
option dns 172.29.11.231
Using SSH to connect to the router, however, I cannot resolve the same host address:
root@OpenWrt:/etc/config# nslookup pc141.mycompany.local
Server: 127.0.0.1
Address: 127.0.0.1#53
** server can't find pc141.mycompany.local: NXDOMAIN
** server can't find pc141.mycompany.local: NXDOMAIN
What could be the cause of the problem?
