      Hi all,

      what kind of results should i expect from https://www.dnsleaktest.com

      it shows my public ip as the result. is that normal because pfsense uses dns resolver unbound to resolve dns locally on pfsense ?

        Yep, unbound with forwarding mode off will query the roots and other authoritative DNS servers directly. That's the expected result in that configuration.
