NextDNS Log file?

Hello All,

I have the client installed on an edgerouter, with the command sudo /config/nextdns/nextdns Log I can get the Log file. 

Anyone knows if there is a specific location for the NextDNS as it is not under /var/log in the var/log/messages I can find similar entries to the entries when issuing the above mentioned command.

I am not looking for the Log files found under Settings in the my.nextdns.io web page.

    You can use `nextdns log`.

      Thanks and yes I am using, but I was just wondering if there were a separate Log stored somewhere. In the folder /var/log/messages I see more or less same as nextdns log - just together with lots of other messages

      Steen Hansen "nextdns log" is just grepping nextdns from /var/log/messages, there is no other logs.

      Olivier Poitrey Got it I sort of assumed, but then I am not an expert :)

     Most likely a buggy device on your network generating buggy DNS packets.
