piHole: Forwarded queries
-
Looking through my pHole - I see that a number of entries (IPaddresses) are shown as forwarded. Is this something that should be allowed (forwarding) or blocked?

Completely normal. A forward in DNS is when the local DNS server (the Pi-Hole) doesn't have the "answer" in its table.

I wondered - I went back and read it 'backwards' and from that stand point - I can very much see it as being normal. the request is forwarded on - ... not something coming in that shouldn't.
Thanks
