How and how often are "Host Name" objects resolved

How and how often are "Host Name" objects resolved

I've configured a Host Name object for a firewall policy (e.g. server.domain.com). My question is how often will the name be resolved. Background is that the IP address is changing frequently. Does the AP use the DNS servers from that WiFi-SSID or it's management DNS server? I couldn't find it in the documentation.

Hi Sam,

yes this answers my question.

Thank you.

The hostname will be resolved each time it is requested by a client. The DNS settings are set up in the additional settings of the Network Policy, so all SSIDs in the Network Policy will use the same DNS server. Does that answer your questions?
