pihole-FTL may require more resources to run than plain dnsmasq (mostly memory), but it does not tie to any specific hardware. It can be used as a drop-in replacement for dnsmasq, and it runs on any supported OS (Debian (in different flavours),Ubuntu,Fedora,CentOS Stream). While router OSs are not among those, there are some third-party efforts in getting it to run on some, e.g. https://github.com/jacklul/entware-pi-hole/ for an Asus router.
The modification you mentioned the Pi-Hole team applied to dnsmasq are very interesting for sure, are they or can they be made public?
Pi-hole's code is published on GitHub. The link I've shared in my previous post would also point you to Pi-hole's GitHub repository. ;) Kind regards, Buck _______________________________________________ Dnsmasq-discuss mailing list Dnsmasq-discuss@lists.thekelleys.org.uk https://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dnsmasq-discuss
