FQDN in VIPs
FQDN in VIPs
Instead of mapping to an IP address a VIP can use a FQDN(Fully Qualified Domain Name). This has to be configured in the CLI and the FQDN must be an address object that is already configured in the address listing.
The syntax for using a FQDN is:
config firewall vip edit <VIP id> set type fqdn
set mappped-addr <FQDN address object> end

I have 1 public ip address and several server behind the FG
i need to forward the incoming webserver’s request to different lan ip, based on fqdn.
example: http://topolino.pippo.com to 192.168.1.10 and http://pluto.pippo.com to 192.168.1.20
how i do it?
Do you only have a single external IP? If you only have a single external IP you will need to have your DNS point both subdomains to the same external but make them accessible on specific ports. It’s kind of a mess though.
