Title: Retain client IPs with dnsmasq to AdGuardHome
Post by: alto on February 07, 2024, 09:30:21 AM
I'm running dnsmasq as my main dns handler on opnsense, because I split dns for some local use cases.
Recently I set up AdGuard Home and noticed that there is only one client ip shown, 192.168.1.1 of the router.
This I assume is due to dnsmasq acting as a dns proxy to adguard for all reguests going out to the public internet.

To summarize my requests go: client -> dnsmasq (53) -> adguard (53530) -> wan

Is there a way to configure dnsmasq and AdGuard so that requests passing through dnsmasq retain the client ip information which can then be properly displayed by AdGuard Home dashboard?

No takers? Is this to say that what I'm looking for can't be done with dnsmasq and/or opnsense?
