Hi,

I am running dnsmasq 2.86 on openwrt, and have multiple vlans in my network. dnsmasq works great for dhcp purposes (for both dynamic and static leases) that I need for all interfaces/vlans. However, some of the vlans I do not need/want to have dnsmasq providing dns, but another dns server for content filtering purposes.

I'd prefer to keep both dns servers on the same host/router, but the way dnsmasq works, either binding to interfaces, or wildcard, binds to all port 53, so that the 2nd dns server can't bind.

It appears that when dnsmasq is set to bind to interfaces, it has to either offer both dns and dhcp, or skip dhcp by "--no-dhcp-interface" argument, but there is no counterpart "--no-dns-interface".

Setting port=0 disables dns service on all interfaces, which is not what I wanted as well.

I did found there were two discussions regarding this:

https://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/pipermail/dnsmasq-discuss/2021q3/015429.html

Running two instances of dnsmasq doesn't resolve this issue, since I still rely on dnsmasq's dhcp.


Thanks.
