      I attempted to add a static mapping via the status>dhcp leases for the device I want to redirect to cleanbrowsing family filter dns (185.228.168.168, 185.228.169.168). But it didn't appear to work when tested at dnsleaks.

      I have DoT configured, unbound, and a rule forcing all dns inquiries through the router.

      Maybe it is not as simple as I thought. I couldn't find a recipe for parental control options. Any help appreciated. (The kid is 6, so not worried about setting the browsers DoH, or dns settings, yet, just looking for some modicum of safety).

        @stevogas said in redirect dns of one device to kidsafe dns:

        Are you sure that your rule to force all DNS inquiries through the router is not rerouting the host's DNS request back out through unbound? You might need to add a rule above the DNS rule that forces everything through the router. The new rule would allow the IP of the host to send traffic to 185.228.168.168, 185.228.169.168.

        If you need more help can you post some screenshots of your firewall rules, DNS (resolver/forwarder) and NAT redirect rules for the DNS.
