Lots of DNS lookup for "local" originating from Orbi
Hi,
I recently setup a Pi-hole DNS server for my network (which runs an Orbi RBR50 as the router).
As usual the Orbi is acting as a DNS proxy & I see all DNS queries in my network originating from the Orbi.
I'm seeing a lot of DNS queries for "local" in my Pi-hole logs (see screenshot).
This is in addition to the "netgear.com" queries that the Orbi seems to be doing regularly.
So my question is: Are these "local" lookups being done by the Orbi itself or something else on my network? Does anyone else see these queries?

I doubt it is the Orbi wanting SOA records. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOA_record
Have you created local DNS entries in the Pi-hole?
