Summary

DNS name resolution for IPv4 servers failed. DirectAccess clients might not be able to access IPv4-only servers in the corporate network.

Causes

1. DNS64 is not enabled on the server.

2. The DNS64 server is unavailable.

3. Web probe addresses cannot be reached.

4. Corporate DNS servers are unable to resolve the web probe addresses.

Resolutions

1. Ensure that DNS64 is enabled on the server.

2. For native IPv6 connectivity, ensure that the NAT64/DNS64 prefix is configured in the DirectAccess settings.

3. In the Remote Access Server Setup Wizard, ensure that the default NRPT entry points to the internal address of the NAT64/DNS64 server.
