Client VPN Connection to Route 53 Private Hosted Zone

Question

I have one privately hosted zone in my vpc using Route 53. I also have one client vpn connection to that vpc, which is functioning normally. I want the client to get access to my website hosted using private zone in private su.net through their browser when they are connected to the VPN Client.

I have enabled "DNS Configuration" in the Client VPN Settings. But my client is not able to access the hostname of the webitse hosted in the private hosted zone. Though they are able to access the website using client vpn connection but by using ip address. I want them to access it using hostname. I have tried defining the DNS ip in client vpn settings as

1. AWS Provided DNS (VPC CIDR + 2)
2. 2.Route 53 inbound endpoint ips. Both did not work. Help me out on this.

Answer 1

Take a look at this guide, it might be useful for you, but as far as I understand you need to use direct connect or AWS VPN. Cause even if your client is inside the VPC by your custom VPN it still does not use the same DNS resolver https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/route53-resolve-with-inbound-endpoint/
