ESET IDS not working on Hostname but only IP-Address

[schuetzdentalCB 8]

Aloha,

any idea why ESET Endpoint Security IDS Rules or Network Attack Protection Rules are not working when using an internal hostname?

For example:

Connection to Admin Shares is blocked when using IP Address...but if i'm using the Hostname for this IP its just allowing it   this cant be right?? its just not reacting when im using a hostname..

As far as EES goes, you can only enter IP address in Remote IP Address section: https://help.eset.com/eis/14/en-US/idh_config_epfw_ids_exceptions.html . Assumed this is because Eset firewall rules only support IP addresses.
