pc name and ip address not recognized any longer

I have two fvs318n firewall routers therefore a two location vpn.  I have seen what I believe is a failure of the router netbios.  The lan ip addresses are no longer linked to the pc name.  How can I remedy this?

Hi DrDaveCF,
Welcome to the community!

Do you enabled NetBIOS for VPN Policy? It is on VPN policy configuration page.

 

Thanks,

Dan

Yes Dan the NetBios is enabled.  It seems that the problem appeared on machines where there is two addresses for the same named machine.  One for a wireless connection and the other for wired.  I can't prove that however.
