4. May I know how to enable the dnsmasq debug? Any documentation / steps on how to do it? I believe I have to do it on the VR itself? Sure you have to do that on VR itself. You should edit the file /etc/dnsmasq.conf
Now I am not able to access my VR to see which property you should enable. But, if you log into the VR and open the /etc/dnsmasq.conf, you should be able to see a debug option commented. You just need to uncomment it and restart the service.
