If you set up dnsmasq to ignore resolv file it will ignore it until reboot is performed. To make ignore it again the option must be uncheck and apply and then check and apply again.
I have /etc/resolv.conf as a symlink to /tmp/resolv.conf, when the router boots up the contents are the dns offered from dhcp over the wan interface. When the ignore resolv option is checked or unchecked the contens are overwrited to search lan and nameserver 127.0.0.1 but it doesn’t seems to affect as if you uncheck ignore resolv the router resolv names, and when you check again the option it can resolv names even the contents still are search lan and nameserver 127.0.0.1.
I haven’t seen yet any other change that can cause the reboot to make dnsmasq follow resolv file when the option is checked until you uncheck-apply and check-apply.
