Please follow the below template, it will help us to help you!

Expected Behaviour:

[I expect to get the dns server's ip as the response. Prior to 4.0 I was running 3.x and it was working correctly (i.e. redirecting to the blocked page). The only change was the upgrade to 4.0]

Actual Behaviour:

[Cients are getting 0.0.0.0 as a response]

Debug Token:

[7b6g0s32ru]

This is the new default blocking mode (NULL). You can change to any blocking mode you like with FTL's config file:

Got it. I switched it to IP-NODATA-AAAA and that's fixed it.

I tried to see if I could pick up on anything in the changelog that might have caused this, but obviously I missed it.

Thanks for the quick response.
