I would like to include a bunch of domain names inside the drop requests app.
My home network has a corporate network with WPAD not configured in an optimal way and because of that, the device keeps sending public DNS requests (which my DNS Server running Technitium receives) resulting in a large amount of "NX Domain" responses.
I do not have admin rights in the device to try to fix the improper behavior myself and instead got interested in having the DNS Server simply drop the requests instead of returning NX Domain.
I tried including those domain names inside the same object containing the "example.com" domain (which is included by default in the Drop Requests App) like so:
But that did not work (more so, queries for the example.com domain stopped being dropped by DNS Server).
The only proper way to go about this setup I need would be to create one object of type {"blockZone": true} for each domain name?
There are 20+ of them (unfortunately, the domain suffix search list on the device is that long!), I tried it like described above hoping for a shorter length config file.

Hello,
I would like to include a bunch of domain names inside the drop requests app.
My home network has a corporate network with WPAD not configured in an optimal way and because of that, the device keeps sending public DNS requests (which my DNS Server running Technitium receives) resulting in a large amount of "NX Domain" responses.
I do not have admin rights in the device to try to fix the improper behavior myself and instead got interested in having the DNS Server simply drop the requests instead of returning NX Domain.
I tried including those domain names inside the same object containing the "example.com" domain (which is included by default in the Drop Requests App) like so:
"blockedQuestions": [
{
"name": "example.com",
"name": "wpad.corpdomain1.com",
"name": "wpad.corpdomain2.com",
"blockZone": true
},
But that did not work (more so, queries for the example.com domain stopped being dropped by DNS Server).
The only proper way to go about this setup I need would be to create one object of type {"blockZone": true} for each domain name?
There are 20+ of them (unfortunately, the domain suffix search list on the device is that long!), I tried it like described above hoping for a shorter length config file.
Thank you
