M5 used as a DHCP Server, How to find the configured domain name?
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hi.
My Deco is working as a DHCP Server for my network.
For an AdBlocker solution I am installing I need to find out the DHCP Domain name.
Since it is not in the app I was wondering how I can find it.
Thanks in advance

@Dekel you ever get a real answer to this?
My Pi-Hole needs this to resolve internal IP addresses.
I suppose I could check whether the `domain-name` or `domain-search` options gets set by the DHCP server,and then take it from there, but I think that the Deco's configuration options are actually slightly idiotic in its rather arbitrary limitations.

@Kevin_Z I was asking for the domain name not the IP address, See:

I'm looking to do the same thing.
I'll keep searching and post back here if I find anything.
An online manual appears to suggest it might be possible, but perhaps is slightly misleading and instead referring to DDNS..?
