When there is a Pi-hole domain set and this box is
+ ticked, this asks FTL that this domain is purely
+ local and FTL may answer queries from /etc/hosts or DHCP leases
+ but should never forward queries on that domain to any upstream servers.
Note that enabling these two options may increase your privacy - slightly, but may also prevent you from being able to access - local hostnames if the Pi-hole is not used as DHCP server
+All reverse lookups for private IP ranges (i.e., 192.168.0.x/24, etc.)
+ which are not found in /etc/hosts or the DHCP leases are answered
+ with "no such domain" rather than being forwarded upstream. The set
+ of prefixes affected is the list given in RFC6303.
Important: Enabling these two options may increase your privacy, + but may also prevent you from being able to access + local hostnames if the Pi-hole is not used as DHCP server.
