Interfaces/Diagnostics/DNS Lookup does not work properly

[IsaacFL]

I have a real domain, using cloudflare as my registrar.

When i use the GUI DNS lookup for a local host it does not return the expected A and AAAA records for the host, instead, it responds with the SOA of the NS:

Code Select Expand

Response
Type Address
SOA brenda.ns.cloudflare.com.
Resolution time per server
Server Query time
127.0.0.1 0 msec
1.1.1.1 31 msec
208.67.222.222 32 msec
2606:4700:4700::1111 16 msec
2620:119:35::35 46 msec

I use the shell and do a nslookup the same host it does respond with the proper A and AAAA records for the local host (sanitized output):

Code Select Expand

root@OPNsense:~ # nslookup wap371.home.mydomain.com
Server:         127.0.0.1
Address:        127.0.0.1#53

Name:   wap371.home.mydomain.com
Address: 10.23.10.21
Name:   wap371.home.mydomain.com
Address: 2605:e000:abcd:ef10:7e69:f6ff:fe36:2f0



Also GUI DNS Lookup only responds with A records.
Looking up dns.google responds with the 2 A type records, but not the AAAA.

Code Select Expand

Hostname or IP
dns.google
Response
Type Address
A 8.8.8.8
A 8.8.4.4
Resolution time per server
Server Query time
127.0.0.1 0 msec
1.1.1.1 19 msec
208.67.222.222 18 msec
2606:4700:4700::1111 20 msec
2620:119:35::35 27 msec

Again the shell using nslookup dns.google.com

Code Select Expand

root@OPNsense:~ # nslookup dns.google
Server:         127.0.0.1
Address:        127.0.0.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:   dns.google
Address: 8.8.4.4
Name:   dns.google
Address: 8.8.8.8
Name:   dns.google
Address: 2001:4860:4860::8844
Name:   dns.google
Address: 2001:4860:4860::8888



Any local host doing dns lookup does get the expected responses, is it is as if the DNS Lookup is not actually getting a response from the local unbound.

Reverse lookup of a local IP, both ipv4 and ipv6, does seem work.
