A centralized DNS monitoring and control dashboard providing real-time visibility into all Pi-hole instances responsible for network-wide name resolution, filtering, and traffic policy enforcement. This system serves as a foundational security and performance layer, mediating every outbound request from devices across the home.
Designed for immediate insight and long-term reliability, the dashboard tracks query volume, block rates, upstream resolver health, response latency, cache effectiveness, and per-instance availability. It exposes both real-time activity and historical trends, enabling rapid identification of anomalies such as excessive retries, upstream failures, misbehaving clients, or rule-set regressions.
Integrated tightly with Home Assistant, the DNS layer supports automated health checks, alerting, and conditional failover between resolvers to maintain uninterrupted service. By treating DNS as critical infrastructure rather than a passive utility, this dashboard ensures consistent network performance, improves privacy, enforces policy at the edge, and provides a resilient backbone for all connected systems and automations.
