## use cases
### openwrt hardware as the external dns resolver
> I assume that in this setup openwrt act as a dhcp client (not a server).
> You can set lan network as a dhcp client by using these uci values (use `uci commit` to apply):
> ```
> uci del network.lan.ipaddr
> uci del network.lan.netmask
> uci del network.lan.ip6assign
> uci set network.lan.proto='dhcp'
> ```
the main goal is to replace `dnsmasq` with `coredns` because they share the same port `53`.
1. go `System``Startup`, disable and stop `dnsmasq`
2. enable and start `coredns`
3. now coredns acts as a default resolver and listen all interfaces by default.
