Specifying the environment variable "VPN_DNS_NAME=vpn.example.com" does not apply in IKEv2 mode, although you could manually set a DNS server in the generated configuration profile "vpnclient.mobileconfig", it would be more consistent for "VPN_DNS_NAME" to apply in IKEv2 mode.

@SGprooo Hello! The VPN_DNS_NAME variable specifies a DNS name (domain name) to be used as the IKEv2 server address, such as vpn.example.com. This is NOT to specify a DNS server.

You may instead use VPN_DNS_SRV1 and/or VPN_DNS_SRV2 to specify custom DNS servers. See [1] and [2] for more details.

Note that all of these variables have no effect for IKEv2 mode, if IKEv2 is already set up in the Docker container. In this case, you may remove IKEv2 and set it up again using custom options. Refer to Configure and use IKEv2 VPN.
