The journal records the network state of the host and each change of
that state. The support team reads one file to see the interfaces, the
routes, the resolvers, and the recoveries around an incident. The same
file shows the health of the query path. A change that touches only
AirDrop or virtual interfaces runs no DNS work.
upstreamConfigFor() used strings.Contains(":") to detect whether to
append ":53", but IPv6 addresses contain colons, so IPv6 servers were
passed as bare addresses (e.g. "2a0d:6fc0:9b0:3600::1") to net.Dial
which rejects them with "too many colons in address".
Use net.JoinHostPort() which handles both IPv4 and IPv6 correctly,
producing "[2a0d:6fc0:9b0:3600::1]:53" for IPv6.
Implement VPN DNS discovery and split routing for intercept mode:
- Discover VPN DNS servers from F5 BIG-IP, Tailscale, Network
Extension VPNs, and traditional VPN adapters
- Exit mode detection (split vs full tunnel) via routing table
- Interface-scoped pf exemptions for VPN DNS traffic (macOS)
- Windows VPN adapter filtering with routable address check
- AD domain controller detection with retry on transient failure
- Cleanup of stale exemptions on VPN disconnect
Squashed from intercept mode development on v1.0 branch (#497).
