Timestamp DNS logging?

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

Is there a section for timestamp IP logging in openwrt and/or timestamp IP logging for a specific PC connected to openwrt router?

I see live IP connections under RealTime Graphs/Connections.

You can log connections with softflowd or conntrackd, Never heard of "ip logging"

I've installed it, how do I view connected IP's to the IP of the computer I want to view or log?

Configure a 'bpf' string in your /etc/config/softflowd

Explain this concept, thank you

So, openwrt cannot/don't have an option to log IP's defaultly? I don't understand, it's a router.

I have no idea bpf etc.

The router shows live IP's connected but no logging option.

I can goto my PiHole and look at DNS history.

I can't view IP history in OpenWRT?

o.O

Please post again once you've managed to have Pi-hole running on devices with >= 8MB flash and >= 64MB RAM.

There's a logging option for dnsmasq in OpenWRT too.

You can enable logging in each firewall zone to log every connection, but probably will overload your router. What level of detail do you want to see?

When I go to my OpenWrt I can enable querylog to syslog, then filter in syslog.

Can you explain the meaning of IP history - is it little johnny running around the city and you want to know all his IP-s or is it something else.
