I believe this is by design. NetworkManager starts up a dnsmasq instance that then uses the DNS servers provided by the DHCP server to resolve queries. This is so that dnsmasq acts as a DNS caching application.
If you run tcpdump or wireshark to log DNS queries made, you should see that the DNS servers provided by the DHCP server are used. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577724 Title: NM doesn't sets the DNS properly, forces local dnsmasq as a resolver To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1577724/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
