I am testing Teams Gateway as a replacement for VPN. I was told, I could setup a DNS(New) Policy to override an internal DNS request for server.domain.local, however when I look at DNS request logs on the WARP client, I don’t even see it capture the request. Is there a configuration change I need to have the WARP client pick up the request?
Additionally this would be a lot easier if I could configure some type of conditional forwarder within cloudflare that if a resource was looking to resolve a host on a specific domain to forward the request to my internal domain controller. I am not even sure how this is not a problem for a lot of people if they are using Teams for Cloudflare to replace a traditional VPN.
By default .local is excluded from queries sent to Teams for resolution.
Yes.

… remove .local
Yes. Yes it absolutely would. You are correct. We are working on adding that feature (possibly in the same place as local domain fallback is configured now). There are a few interesting bits we want to try and get right, not just for this specific use case but a couple of other very legit use cases as well.
Big enough feature that when it’s released I’m sure we’ll write a blog post about it. I apologize we don’t have it yet. I totally recognize the current workaround has some challenges and we’re looking to deliver the feature you’re specifically asking for here along with potentially a couple of other new features which will hopefully result in you giving us a when they are released.
Thank you. That appears to work. I look forward to the other feature releases. I would love to roll this out, but I am still not 100% sure it is workable in this state, but I will keep trying.
