DNS over SSLVPN remote access not resolving

I have a Sonicwall SOHO 250 with the current firmware running that is configured with SSLVPN. Everything is working great except that DNS is not resolving when you are connected. I have checked the appliance and NetExtender settings - it looks right to me. I am using local authentication - no AD/LDAP is configured. Any ideas?

DNS is not resolving when you are connected

Are you meaning "DNS" as a whole isn't working when connected?

or do you mean name resolution to the devices on the other end isn't working?

Additional information would be helpful

DNS does not resolve names when you are connected remotely to our network via the SSLVPN. Kenfamp -  I'm sorry but I dont know how say it anymore plainly than that.

Mohammad - I do not have a network called DNS Subnets in my list of networks. You must have created a Custom network.  Right?  Both User Settings and VPN access have permissions to LAN Subnets.
is your dns server member of LAN subnets?

Try to add custom network for dns and add it to both (user and vpn access settings) 
Mohammad - The NetExtender client is connected to my DNS server. I only have one Windows Server 2016 and its a DC running everything on it.

If your windows server has windows firewall enabled, try to disable It for testing

​Also check access rule from sslvpn subnet towards dns server
