DNS Issue, OpenVPN Client on Mac OS Mojave and WatchGuard

Hello,
We are experiencing a DNS issue with OpenVPN Client on Mac OS Mojave and WatchGuard. We do not see the same issue on iOS (iPhone and iPad) or Android or on Linux (I have an Ubuntu 18 laptop). On M$ Windows we use the WatchGuard Client.

When using OpenVPN client on a Mojave MacBook Pro we have to use FQDN in order to resolve internal destinations. We have tried turning off IPv6.
The other devices work just fine. All of the same network and downloading the same config file from the WatchGuard to configure the client.
in other device we can just type servername and make a connection. In Mac Mojave and beta Catalina we have to type out the full name severname.domain.net.
The issue does not present under High Sierra or Sierra.

Thank you,

Jesse.
