      Hi, we have several IPs coming in from a T1 and connected to pfsense. OpenDNS with content filtering is used for the main IP configured in WAN. For the other IPs the ISP gives us, I rerouted certain computers to use them (under firewal-rules) and it works great, however DNS is still using the main IP's DNS servers and this results in blocked website. The purpose of routing some computers away from the main IP is to get some websites unblocked. Using an alternate DNS server and manually configuring it on the computer itself is not an option because we have a Domain Controller set up, and it is vital to route all DNS queries primarily through the DC's DNS server. How can I tell pfsense not to use WAN to get DNS queries, rather use the IP address that it's originating from?
      I also set up a 1:1 NAT, no resolution.
      Thank you in advance.
