[QUOTE="valvaris, post: 902333, member: 38787"] Hi [USER=11229]@Freki123[/USER] the main issue is IPv6. Best practice is truly to go with IPv4 only and then do a leak test. Another factor is how DNS gets handled by your network. Like rouge DNS Users (Android OS, iOS and so on...) There is a solution were if it is not the DNS Address 1.1.1.1 [Example] it forwards it to the propper IP Address 1.1.1.1. (Example 8.8.8.8 [is not 1.1.1.1] forward that to 1.1.1.1) Do not forget to set the Port on 53 for DNS Traffic. Next is mDNS if not in use Block it Port 5353. That should cover the DNS Leaking issue. But make sure you have a central Point for DNS Request. ;) Tip: Some Apps have hardcoded DNS Addresses this is were a NAT Rule can help. Best regards Val. [/QUOTE]
