DNSMasq Integration

Olivier Poitrey edited this page Apr 26, 2020 · 1 revision

It is possible to run dnsmasq and nextdns together and still benefit from client reporting and conditional configuration:

  • Make sure nextdns is installed on a different port using -listen 127.0.0.1:5555 for instance.
  • Add the following settings to dnsmasq parameters: --server '127.0.0.1#5555' --add-mac --add-subnet=32,128

Note: on some router firmware which are shipped with dnsmasq, this configuration will be automatically handled by the -setup-router parameter.
