I have configured my LAN interface with DHCP option 6. However, when I do ipconfig /all on my Windows PC, I see the DNS server assigned is the LAN IP of my router.
I was expecting the DNS servers advertised by the DHCP option 6 to be the ones showing in the output.
Is this normal behaviour?
Has the machine renewed its lease since you made the change?

I did the following:
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /renew
The machine in question has a DHCP IP reservation. Does that cause a problem?
On a positive note, I rebooted the router and now I see the DNS servers reflect as expected.
Show us the Status/Overview- Active DHCPv6 Leases
Redact MAC addresses and anything personal.
I am not sure that will be useful since the leases file doesn't contain the DNS servers details.
Well, you seemed most comfortable in LuCI.
And, you seem to have fixed it.
Seemed?
I could screenshot, but that would be too much work. The leases file is an easy option if I was to provide details. I looked at it and it did not contain anything that would have been useful with this particular issue.
Thanks.
Seemed.
Seemed is not a definitive word.
If you see IPV6 leases where I asked, it is a problem; regardless of the CLI config. If you do not it is a different config issue.
But what do I seem to know?
