Hi @mshekh 

Those settings are same on a firewall where it is working and this firewall where it not working. I am confused now as to where is the issue.

At least you need to take care of two locations.

 

One is DNS proxy as mentioned in previous post:

Secondary, you need to configure to use dns proxy by system (pan device itself) as below:

Here is my result:

====

admin@PA-455> ping host abcsampledomain.com  <<< Before configuring above two
ping: abcsampledomain.com: System error

admin@PA-455> show dns-proxy static-entries all

Name: dnsproxy
Static Entries: 2
Domain IP/Name Type Class TTL Hits Static
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.3.2.1.in-addr.arpa abcsampledomain.com PTR IN 0 0 config
abcsampledomain.com 1.2.3.4 A IN 0 0 config


admin@PA-455> ping host abcsampledomain.com <<< After configuring above two
PING abcsampledomain.com (1.2.3.4) 56(84) bytes of data. <<< you can see IP address

====

 

I have these configured similar on both working and non working firewall
