+Do not act as a DNS proxy or support external DNS resolving. Depending
+on how ConnMan is compiled, it will by default direct all DNS traffic
+to itself by setting nameserver to 127.0.0.1 in \fBresolv.conf\fP(5)
+file or leave DNS management to an external entity, such as
+systemd-resolved. If this is not desired and you want that all programs
+call directly some DNS server, then you can use the \fB--nodnsproxy\fP
+option. If this option is used, then ConnMan is not able to cache the
+DNS queries because the DNS traffic is not going through ConnMan and that
