This is the new default since Pi-hole FTL v5.3.2. It should resolve issues with more and more very short-lived PE IPv6 addresses coming up in a lot of networks.

- `REFRESH_HOSTNAMES=ALL` - Do the hourly PTR lookups for all addresses
|
||||
This is the same as what we're doing with FTL v5.3(.1). This can create a lot of PTR queries for those with many IPv6 addresses in their networks.
|

- `REFRESH_HOSTNAMES=UNKNOWN` - Only resolve unknown hostnames
|
||||
Already existing hostnames are never refreshedi, i.e., there will be no PTR queries made for clients where hostnames are known. This also means that known hostnames will not be updated once known.
|
||||
- `REFRESH_HOSTNAMES=NONE` - Don't do any hourly PTR lookups
|
||||
This means we look host names up exactly once (when we first see a client) and never again. You may miss future changes of host names.
