PA-440 cannot resolve domain names to ipv4 addresses on CLI

Hello all,

Do you how to configure resolve domain to ipv4 address on CLI PA-440?

I have set the setup->service-> primary DNS server, and all interface ipv6 are disable.

But I ping a domain name on CLI, the resolved address returned is the ipv6 address, not ipv4.

Hello,

Is 10.10.60.2 what you use for the DNS service route? Also if you dont use IPv6 you could also just disable IPv6 firewalling, Device>Setup>Session>IPv6 firewalling.

@C.Season,

Unfortunately I'm not sure that this is possible if IPv6 is enabled and the host has a AAAA record. You would logically think that specifying an IPv4 source would keep things IPv4, but it doesn't. You'd also think that you could utilize inet6 no or that there would be an inet yes option that you could add, but unfortunately there isn't and attempting to utilize inet6 no doesn't force it to utilize IPv4.
