DNS logs not showing customers IP they show the IP of the MT

DNS logs are not showing the customers IP, they are showing the ip of the MT.


On customers DNS logs my customer is concerned because the logs for all customers behind an MT AP show the ip of the MT and not the customers IP itself.
So the customer feels that this is a huge issue with Calea because they won’t be able to track the customers DNS query’s



All IP’s are public not private: example uses private

Example the MT’s IP is 10.10.10.x and the customers IP’s are 192.168.1.x when customers query to DNS the dns server see the source ip as 10.10.10.x and not 192.168.1.x



Why is MT acting as a proxy when querying DNS?

How can we get this to show the customers IP and not the IP of the MT?

not sure if this will answer the question or not.. but
if you are using the Mikrotik as the DHCP server just
go to
/ip dhcp-server network
and change the DNS servers for that network.

we currently use the Mikrotik to proxy the DNS requests so I cannot verify this works without changing that.
but maybe this will help…
