General Discussion / Re: configuring DoT or DoH
September 11, 2025, 02:20:14 PM
nice yeah i did

https://dnscheck.tools

and thats what got me down this rabbit hole, it was my ISP's DNS even tho i changed my system nameservers to quad9/google/cloudflare

but now its WoodyNet ie quad9 when i set up DoT

do i need to make a fw rule as it says on the page to block outgoing 53 ?

nice, so now im using DoT

before i was using dns settings under system > settings > general

and when i went to

https://ipleak.net/

my dns was coming back as my isp's dns even tho i had it using google, quad9 or cloudflare

since i changed to DoT and refreshing the page my DNS now is google/quad9/cloudflare so all good

has anyone else experienced this

so reading this guide

https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/unbound.html#dns-over-tls

il go here

services > unbound dns > dns over tls - add

fill it in with either cloudflare google or quad9

do i need to do the "advanced configurations"

this is DoT, is "os-dnscrypt-proxy" DoH

what one is better to use?

basically the reason why im asking is because I got from my ISP a block page when trying to access a website

I dont understand why i got a block page from them as im not using my ISP's DNS

under

system > settings > general

im using 8.8.8.8 and  1.1.1.1 and 9.9.9.9

and i have "unticked" both "dns server options"

allow dns server list to be overrridden by dhcp/ppp
do not use the local dns service as a nameserver

on my main pc i have changed my dns ip to that of my opnsense lan ip

hi all,

made a floating rule, so i can block in/out, here it is

https://i.postimg.cc/t4jhdhyB/block-internet.png

i know its disabled atm but it was enabled and it is working ie it blocks ping to 8.8.8.8 and any internet bookmarks i have it just cant gewt to them, times out

i have done invert dest as i still want to access internal websites like opnsense and hosted websites, all works

but when i send myself a teams/outlook on my phone, it comes through to my "rkw_pc" ie the "source" why is this please

thanks,
rob

sorry for the long wait, ive been researching into it, basically in the end i didnt have to mess about with my dhcp options/config as i installed DRBL with dnsmasq and part of dnsmasq is proxy dhcp

i found out why

<ifname>AllInt</ifname>
      <members>opt1 enc0 lan opt2 opt3</members>
      <nogroup/>
      <sequence>0</sequence>
      <descr>AllInt</descr>
    </ifgroupentry>
    <ifgroupentry uuid="bf1ef880-0e64-4317-82e1-b842e9418527">
      <ifname>All_Int</ifname>
      <members>lan,opt1,opt2,opt3,opt4</members>

as

opt1 enc0 lan opt2 opt3

should be

opt1,enc0,lan,opt2,opt3,opt4

you think i can just change in the xml and restore the new xml?
