adguard home DNS settings

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

I have the following setup.

192.168.88.1 = Mikrotik
172.17.0.2 = Adguard container
DHCP Server DNS = 172.17.0.2

Works fine :+1:


What I thought I could do is,

DHCP Server DNS = 192.168.88.1
/ip/dns/servers = 172.17.0.2

But when I do this the DNS requests do not make it to the adguard container, I assume they are serviced by the dynamic server first?

Any suggestions on why this is not working?
Thanks!

They will be serviced by the Router DNS cache first. You can use DST NAT to redirect them to the AdGuard DNS server, if DHCP is not enough

/export file=anynameyouwish (minus router serial number and any public WANIP information), that way we can advise better.

Thanks, that makes sense :folded_hands:
