Ignore WAN DNS
-
Hello,
I'm currently in the process of migrating from dd-wrt to pfSense and I'm missing an essential feature. In dd-wrt is an option called: "Ignore WAN DNS". Is there anything alike in pfSense?
The background is that I need the company VPN DNS. So I want to ignore WAN DHCP DNS but allow override for VPN PUSH DNS.
Thanks!

In System > General Setup there is on option "DNS Server Override", which you should have unchecked. -

Thanks for the reply but then my pushed DNS over VPN won't be used.
Or can I register the DNS from the VPN in a different way to unbound? -
@marco-2 if you wnat unbound to use forwarding mode - you would have to set that up and put in whatever dns you want it to use.

@johnpoz but the DNS is not static. It will be pushed over VPN. That's why I need to overwrite function. It's a bit of a dilemma.
With dd-wrt it wasn't a big deal. They offer the possibility to Ignore WAN DNS. I cannot imagine, that there's no way in/for pfSense to do this.
