Feature Request, show DNS server

Post by pbix »

Am I missing something or is the WAN side DNS servers not displayed in the UI anywhere? I would think that this would appear on the status screen in the WAN section. Now there does not seem to be anyway to see what DNS servers where acquired from the ISP.

You're absolutely right. That should be added to the WAN section of the status/overview page. I should have an update for that by the end of the weekend.

I loaded v1.11 and I see the DNS field but there is no data displayed.

Screen shot attached.

I have a PPPoE connection so I wonder if that could be related to this issue.

I am using PPPoE with alternate DNS servers and those are displayed.

To test, I removed them. My ISP's DNS servers were not displayed in their place. Not sure if that was the intention, or if it was just to display alternates if configured?

This should be fixed in v1.0.12 -- now the DNS servers are loaded from /tmp/resolv.conf.auto instead of uci, so this should be accurate even when using PPPoE without custom DNS configured.
