I noticed that dnsmasq often wasn't sending any unsolicited RAs for me.
This turned out to happen when the interface (a bridge interface) wasn't
created yet at the time dnsmasq started. When dnsmasq is started after
the interface is created, it sends RAs as expected. I assume this also

Watching the packets going in and out of the router, I think the problem
relates to this being on a multi-tenant firewall. That's beyond the
scope of this list.
As a work around until I get that sorted, what should I set in the mean
time so that dnsmasq does not to forward any DNS queries? I
It looks like dnsmasq is forwarding the queries to the upstream servers,
but never getting any answers, so it never answers the original
requestor. If you have other servers in the /etc/resolv.conf of the
requestor, then they will be used after the query to dnsmasq has timed
out (assuming the

Thanks, Simon. Adding "log-queries" and
It's likely to be a problem with one or more of the upstream servers. I
suggest setting the dnsmasq "log-queries" option and then examining what
servers the slow query was sent to, and how long they took to reply, or
of they didn't reply at all.

Hey Simon,
removing the upper limit will not change anything except for the few
users that have set this value manually to a very large number. However,
if they did so they were surely not expecting that dnsmasq could just
ignore their setting.

Hello,
I am using dnsmasq on my router to serve up LAN host names and would
like all other queries to pass through to the ISP's DNS servers. I seem
to have some mild misconfiguration of dnsmasq.conf slowing down new
queries for external addresses. Within the TTL subsequent queries are
fast.
