## Overview

The **DNS** page shows the router's RouterOS DNS configuration in three rows:
the static servers you set, whether DNS over HTTPS is active and against which
endpoint, and the dynamic servers the router picked up from DHCP or PPP peers.
Only the first two are yours to change, because the dynamic list is read-only.

The page is not on the router tab bar. Reach it at
`/router/<router-id>/dns` in the panel.

## Before you start

- The session must hold valid credentials for this router.
- Changing DNS affects every client that resolves through the router.

## Steps

1. Open the DNS page for the router.
2. Read the current configuration. Press **Refresh** to re-read it from the
   router at any time.
3. Press **Edit** to open the edit dialog and change the static servers or the
   DoH endpoint.
4. Save. The page reloads the configuration from the router afterwards.

## Reference

| Row | What it shows | Editable |
| --- | ------------- | -------- |
| **Static DNS servers** | Servers configured on the router, or "None configured". | Yes |
| **DNS over HTTPS** | An **Active** badge and the DoH endpoint, or "Disabled". | Yes |
| **Dynamic servers** | Servers supplied by DHCP or PPP peers, or "None received". | No |

## Troubleshooting

**"Missing router credentials for this session."** Reconnect to the router from
the Routers list.

**"Failed to load DNS configuration."** The router did not answer the DNS read.
Press **Refresh**, and check the router is reachable.

**The Edit button is greyed out.** It stays disabled while the page is loading
or if no configuration was read.
