Problem is that OS first tries to resolve LAN IP to DNS even when I
try to ping to IP target.
I suspect your problem is that DNS is misconfigured. ping does that,
and it's not generally considered a bug. Read the man page and note
the -n option.
Really you should debug and fix your DNS setup.
Understand if you intend to run your own named, or use something else.
Look at resolv.conf.
Run dig, as in `dig -x 192.168.1.1`.
On a working setup, you will get a NXDOMAIN for the RFC1918 addresses,
and that will be reasonably quick even the first time.
You are likely to need to read a fair bit about DNS and dig in order to
fix this.
