DNS server list (192.168.1.1 comes from nowhere?)

[jimmy shao]

Hi,

Need a hand ~~

There is an IP address 192.168.1.1 listed in DNS servers, which comes from nowhere.

I never set this IP as a DNS server.

My current IP setting for LAN is 192.168.8.1/16.

• 192.168.8.15 has been add in System/Settings/Gereral/DNS servers.
• The DNS servers in Services/DHCP Server has been left as blank.
• Services/DNS Reslover & DNS Forwarder both are not enabled.

Seems 192.168.1.1 is set by System by default?

How can I delete the 192.168.1.1 from the list of DNS servers, or anywhere to set it?

Thanks!

Try to download the xml backup file and check it to see if there's a 192.168.1.1 somewhere. If so, maybe try to remove the entry from the file and restore it.

Good Idea.

But, there is no such "192.168.1.1" string in the XML file.

PS. I am sure "ALL" has been select in the Backup area.

Well, still not find who to delete the IP address.
Make a clean install again, problem solved.

The issue must come from the tuning of  using dual wan by squid.
That's a really challenge.

hey there.

have the exact same situation. i guess it came, when i changed the ip-subnet from default (after fresh installation) 192.168.1.x to 192.168.0.x

not quite sure, if i had dual wan setup already then.

check the WAN setup, if WAN was set to be DHCP mode, the thing happens.

[s.Oliver]

well, WAN uses PPPoE and has to be set to DHCP  ;)
just can't remember if i setup the WAN first and then changed the LAN subnet, or not.

delete the entry out of /etc/resolv.conf but it reverts back to it.

but it seems to me, that (latest) after a change in interfaces OPNsense should parse it's dns-entries and update/correct it's list of dns-servers.
