Hi Frank,
Thanks for responding.
My implementation is a mixture of point to point and site to site.
I have laptops and mobile phones which connect directly in, but I also
have entire class c subnets routing traffic (the only real difference
being enabling ip routing/bridgining the networks vs no routing and only
being able to see the single device).
The windows implementation of wireshark only allows a point to point
connection as windows does not enable routing (in a similar way that I
don't believe linux does by default). This can be worked around in
windows by selecting the adapter and 'sharing' it with the wireshark
connection (internet connection sharing or ICS). This means that
wireshark can see the entire private class c network changing a point
connection to a site.
My desired result is that each sites class C subnet maintains it's own
dhcp leases and reverse dns of the same (using the ISP router). For
each class C subnet I can configure, per peer, that name resolution
should go to the appropriate dns server.
In summary each house has an ISP router which does DHCP and DNS, I would
like to configure each peer to connect via IP to the peers ISP router in
order to resolve DNS.
I hope that makes sense.
Regards
Simon

Hi,
Again apologies if this is networking newb question
I have just spent the weekend laboriously learning about wireguard windows and
finally powershell & internet connection sharing. My usage case is supporting a
parents network and/or sharing resources in a small site(s) to site(s) network.
My question is this. Without buying any extra commodity hardware, or
installing any more software is it possible to set up conditional DNS
forwarding per peer for DNS ? I would like each subnets DNS server (in this
case isp router) to handle DNS for that subnet.
i.e. if the dns request is for a subnet on peer A use DNS server
192.168.100.254 defined in peer A config
if the dns request is made a subnet on peer B use DNS server
192.168.110.254 defined in peer B config
I'm not totally understanding the topology you are implementing, internet
sharing and site to site, that usually means that both sites have internet
service. It does seem as though you can accomplish having systems in each
subnet use there own DNS by not configuring a DNS directive in the wireguard
config at all.
HTH,

Similar to this:
[Interface]
PrivateKey = pkhere
ListenPort = 12345
Address = 10.250.250.4/24
[PeerA]
PublicKey = peerpkhere
AllowedIPs = 192.168.100.0/24, 10.250.250.0/24
Endpoint = my.ddnsalias.net:5678
DNS = 192.168.100.254
[PeerB]
PublicKey = peerpkhere
AllowedIPs = 192.168.110.0/24, 10.250.250.0/24
Endpoint = my.ddnsalias.net:5678
DNS = 192.168.110.254
I know we already have the Interface level DNS option but that would fail for
peers unless conditional forwarding was configured which isn't possible on most
home routers. I know I can fix this with dnsmasq or a pihole but that requires
another machine on all the time. I was just wondering if anything clever could
easily be done within wireguard. I know it's a big ask but it would be
appreciated as an enhancement request.
Likewise, for the windows version of wireguard it would be cool if there was an
option to enable internet connection sharing on the client. I have done this
successfully (I am happy to share the steps if required) although it was a huge
pita and required dangerousscripts enabling which I'm not keen on.
Thanks again for all the hard work Jason, I love the app, and it is running
happily on my ER-X and making my life better.

Simon
