Title: Different IP addresses when connecting to the WebGUI
Post by: mhead99 on August 26, 2025, 09:44:58 PM
I currently run unbound with fairly standard settings. I have noticed when I ping the fqdn of the firewall I get one ip address and when I resolve via pinging using -a I get another address. The one I would expect from the LAN interface. The pinging via the FQDN route seems to pick a random dhcp address from any of the other configured networks. Even applying an unbound override failed to rectify the issue. Any assistance to this odd issue would be appreciated.

Create an override and additionally check

Services > Unbound DNS > General settings > System A/AAAA records.

Kind regards,
