DHCP adguard home

[trancekat]

Hello all.

I'd like to use adguard home for dns on my router. I understand how to install and set up adguard, but i am not sure if my dhcp server is also dnsmasq. I have a lot of static reservations which i want to reuse.

Is dnsmasq the dhcp server as well as dns or is there a separate daemon for dhcp, please?

Thank you.

Dnsmasq does both, but you can disable the DNS part, or reassign it to a non standard port, allowing AGH to use it.

Oh, thank you.

How do I disable the dns portion, please?

Disabling only the DNS part of dnsmasq?

Apologies in advance if this is a dumb question. I've been trying to disable only the DNS part of dnsmasq (so it doesn't bind to :53), but haven't found anything in LuCI that allows me to do that for some reason. Excluding br-lan will also break DHCP, which is something that I'm trying to avoid. Changing the port away from 53 will work, but I'd rather not leave it open at all. Is there a way to properly disable the DNS part of dnsmasq without interfering the DHCP functionality?
