I am running LEAF 4.2.1 Every once in a while i run into long pauses trying to resolve an a DNS address. I have 3 internal networks (one wireless) all of which look to the router for DNS.
My /etc/reslov.conf nameserver 127.0.0.1 nameserver isps dns numbers nameserver 192.168.1.254 nameserver 192.168.2.254 nameserver 192.168.5.254 *** dnsmasq finds its nameservers from /etc/resolv.conf # If you want dnsmasq to listen for DHCP and DNS requests only on # specified interfaces (and the loopback) give the name of the # interface (eg eth0) here. # Repeat the line for more than one interface. #interface= interface=lo interface=eth1 interface=eth2 interface=wlan0 *** Occasionally I get long pauses on clients looking for say www.google.com During these pauses that can last for several seconds, I can run a nslookup ON THE LEAF BOX nslookup www.google.com and it just hangs looking for an address. If I run nslookup www.google.com ns1.sonic.net it seems to resolve the address (ns1.sonic.net is my isp's primary dns) after it finds the dns server, then nslookup www.google.com server 127.0.0.1 address 1: 74.125.224.145 address 2: 74,125.224.144 etc. Is something wrong with my dnsmask configuration. It did not used to act this way and I have not changed how I have it configured. by the way, ip -s link sh does not show any dropped packets or errors on any interface.
