Gluon nodes will ignore the DNS server on the WAN port for everything except

|
|
|
the mesh VPN, which can lead to confusion.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All normal services on the nodes exclusively use the DNS server on the mesh
|
|
|
|
|
interface. This DNS server must be announced in router advertisements (using
|
|
|
|
|
*radvd* or a similar software) from one or more central servers in meshes based
|
|
|
|
|
on *batman-adv*. If your mesh does not have global IPv6 connectivity, you can setup
|
|
|
|
|
your *radvd* not to announce a default route by setting the *default lifetime* to 0;
|
|
|
|
|
in this case, the *radvd* is only used to announce the DNS server.
