So far, FTL keeps servers apart solely based on their IP addresses. This is typically sufficient, however, users may decide to run different DNS servers on the same IP address. A popular example is, for instance, running FTL on
127.0.0.1#53
andunbound
on127.0.0.1#5353
where#
is thednsmasq
-style port separator.This PR extends the logic in FTL to identify upstream servers by both, address, and port. This also changes the format we store the server in the database. So far, the servers were saved without a port, in the future, they are stored like
127.0.0.1#53
.There is one expected cosmetic issue: FTL cannot know the port of the server responsible for queries in the database. Hence, immediately after switching to this branch, you'll note the assumed server
127.0.0.1#53
(even when the server may be sitting at#5353
). This is merely a displaying issue as the content of the database will be correct at any time. I looked at providing simple solutions for this, however, it would make the code unreadable and - since the issue will be gone after 24 hours - it doesn't seem worth the effort.
