Annoying notification when setting a Private DNS to block ads on some apps

[Sensei-san]

Hello community,

Is someone using successfully the private DNS functionality on his samsung phone?

Settings > connections > more connection settings > private DNS > "private DNS provider hostname"

I tried these well-known public & free DNS adresses as well as other ones,

dns.adguard.com

p2.freedns.controld.com

 ...the private DNS addresses seem to work but I keep getting an annoying notification from android roughly every one minute (see the attached image)

Private DNS server cannot be accessed

When I check with some web browsers like Google chrome, the adds are still blocked which means that the private DNS is working. So I would like to know if I can block this notification.

Thanks

Update:

I could find that the issue likely happens because I have a "work profile" where I have my employer's apps which are connected to my company server through a VPN. So it seems that there are some conflicts between the work profile network and my private DNS setup.

I still find this strange because for me, the work profile should be completely isolated from my personal network settings... but it seems not to be the case.

By temporarily disabling the work profile, I don't get the annoying notification anymore. The drawback is that I will be unable to receive notifications from my outlook and Teams apps in the work profile.
