      My Pfsense system has 3 Interface. Until today I used only two of them: One for WAN and one for 3 VLANs. With this configuration everything worked fine. When I tried to resolve the hostname of the pfsense itself the right IP address for the current VLAN was returned. Now I enabled and assigned the last physical Interface for a guest network. Since then the hostname of the pfsense is alway resolved to the IP of the guest network no matter which network I'm in. Any ideas?

            @Thisisme It is the same here. Probably the resolver works for all Interfaces.

              @Bob-Dig until I enabled the third interface it was fine. Every Vlan has a different subnet and the ip of the pfsense was resolved based on the vlan I'm in. Since I enabled the third its not working anymore.
