Hi Sergio​, DaveD-MS-CETS​ covered the answer here pretty well but I'm curious which tasks specifically that require client name resolution are causing you challenges?

Hi Jason_Sandys​ , DaveD-MS-CETS​ ,

Examples of the problems that have been reported to us are by our on-site teams:

- We can't ping those machines.

- It is not possible to connect to those machines via Remote Desktop.

- As the firewalls cannot resolve the names of those machines, they block access to OT environment.

    Can you please expand on the scenarios where each of this is required or used and how not being able to do this impacts your business or users?

    Also, have you explored using DHCP to register the devices in DNS as DaveD-MS-CETS​ called out?
