Current DNS Server: fe80::dea6:32ff:fe25:41d2 changes or cycles through the three DNS servers, changing about every 5 minutes or upon browsing the web with firefox ( firefox is set to use my DNS servers)
Is that how resolved really works?
Yes, resolved has the notion that every DNS server that's configured is the same for a certain interface. They expect them to be able to serve queries interchangeably.
If you don't want a DNS server to be used, don't assign it to an interface.
I don't assign a DNS server, the assignment comes from the router via DHCP. The issue is that the pi-hole is being "bypassed" on some queries defeating the purpose of the pi-hole. It looks like I will have to assign the DNS server on each client (pc's) (192.168.50.4) and then set the DNS Fall back as 192.168.50.2. I would have liked to avoid that. BTW clients like ipads and phones work as I intended, the pi-hole is the primary DNS server and when it fails it reverts to the bind server (192.168.50.2). -- Hindi madali ang maging ako
