The more I think about this, the more I'm not sure it's the solution even though it works. Perhaps a firewall rule opening up port 53 to the switch interface ? I dunno but I'll figure it out.

Hi ghost. Did you ever figure the DNS issue out?? I'm in the same boat right now. My PC's that use the subnet interface for VPN I have to set the DNS on each PC to point to the VPN DNS, and the other pcs point their DNS to the ER-4. I'd like to setup the DNS in the router to handle it for the interface. I think you are on to something about intercepting via firewall rule and doing a redirect.
