So we experienced in Belgium huge problems with OpenDNS. It seems that through decision of court, OpenDNS is no longer available in Belgium.

That meant massive amount of work: Change DC's, Hyper-V's, IPMI, MFC's,… and now for the last step all my Nebula Devices.

I hence it's a small chance, but is it possible to change all DNS Servers of my Nebula Devices in 1 move? I have MSP Pack(for this moment I haven't seen much advantages on MSP Pack, but if it gives me possibilty to change such settings in 1 move, I would be very happy)

    Hi @nielsscheldeman,

    After checking, Nebula doesn't support 1 Move to change the devices' DNS settings.
    Here is the alternative method:
    Please change the DNS server setting on your DHCP server first. Then, use ZON to scan the devices and click the DHCP renew button to renew the DNS server settings from the DHCP server.

    The other problem is if your devices use DHCP on a long lease and they will not update to the new DNS you put in.

    Not sure about MSP Pack but you likely want to set a low DHCP lease for the changes to happen
