This sounds like the same issue: https://github.com/opnsense/core/issues/7376

and possibly this: https://github.com/opnsense/core/issues/6982

Also, apparently the registered leases should have entries in the

/var/unbound/dhcpleases.conf file, so I will check that next time the issue occurs.

I've created a new github issue here: https://github.com/opnsense/core/issues/8075

Can you please add to the issue so that the devs know it's not just one person experiencing this issue?

I'm glad I'm not the only person experiencing this issue. Maybe we should open a new github issue for this since the other issues appear to have been automatically closed by a bot?

Hi guys,

I've got a strange issue where DNS lookup requests to UnboundDNS/opnSense aren't being answered. The only way I can get it working again is to restart the UnboundDNS service. These are requests to hostnames which should have been registered in DNS by DHCP. There's nothing of interest in the unbound logs.

Any ideas on how I can troubleshoot this?

Original dig request before restarting unbound:

After restarting unbound service:
