Today something strange happened.
I was going through the query log, to see if something was blocked that caused the issue that I was seeing with spotify.
I saw IPs as usual.
Though as I could not spot a related blocked host, I disabled blocking for 5 minutes using the WEB UI with periods of blocking in between from up-to 5 minutes as well, I disabled blocking 3 times.
Then suddenly I realized that there were no longer IPs listed, but the DHCP device names.
At first not all (Funny enough, the test IP 245 stayed) though then also that one was showing the hostname.
All are also using the ip
domain prefix.
I have disabled the blocking earlier also, though back then it did not change a thing.
The only thing I also changed 36 hours ago (though did not have effect until now, but might be related) was to enable IPv6 in the DHCP settings. The strange thing is that the DHCP lease is set to 24 hours, and most devices renewed their DHCP lease this morning the second time already after I changed this in the settings.
I hope this helps you to debug the issue further. If there is anything you want me to try on my device, please tell me. Happy to run some more tests if it helps you debug this.
Here are the results of both dig commands.

Edit
I looked through the long term data, and the query log seems to be containing the correct hostnames since the new lease on yesterday already (first new lease after enabling IPv6). That does not explain why I did see IPs this morning...
