Describe the problem
I'm self-hosting netbird using docker-compose and experience DNS issues once in a while.

To debug, I want to disable netbirds DNS server temporarily but I don't see any option for that in the UI.

Where can I disable netbird DNS service for my peers using the self-hosted variant?

Hello @maaft since our release https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/releases/tag/v0.12.0 we support DNS settings and there you can disable the DNS configurations to your peers. You can update your dashboard and management services containers to the latest versions.
