Hi guys

I'm running two instances of Adguard Home (each instance on a Raspberry Pi).

I would like to assign the two IPs where AGH is running to my entire network and I wanted to know which scenarios is better:

1. configure my router to use AdGuard Home instances as DNS (and remove the ISP ones) and than have all clients use the router's IP as DNS.

CONS: only the router appears as a client in AdGuard Home's dashboard which I can live with. Not really important to see each client's DNS requests.

2. the router uses the ISP or Cloudflare DNS settings and than have the router's DHCP server assign AGH IP address as the DNS server for all connected devices.

PROS: this will ensure that each device on the network sends its DNS queries directly to AdGuard Home, allowing them to be individually tracked and managed. This setup is more effective for monitoring and managing traffic per device, as it bypasses the router's role as a single DNS endpoint.

I'm aware of some of the PROS/CONS of each scenario but whioh one would you go for or which method is the prefered/more rational one.

Thanks
