Hi, Henry_Chinson!
If your AP works in fat mode, you are advised to add the interface address of the AP as the source address.

I checked the DNS configuration method and found that the source address needs to be configured only when the DNS proxy is configured. If the DNS static resolution is configured, the source address does not need to be configured. Can you try to configure it on the command line? Run the dns server source-ip x.x.x.x command to configure the source address.

I try "dns server source-ip 10.0.0.12" get -> "Error: The source IPv4 address already exists."
I try "dns server source-ip 8.8.8.8" nothing reponse. But there is no entry in "disp dns server"

alright, The source address must be an existing address on the device. The source address cannot be 8.8.8.8. If the error message indicates that the IP address already exists, can the DNS server be configured directly?

dns server source-ip 10.0.0.12(ap address) -> "Error: The source IPv4 address already exists."
dns server source-ip 8.8.8.8 -> no error. But there is empty in "disp dns server"

That's not true, you can try to configure the commands I'm telling you.
dns server 8.8.8.8
If prompted to configure the source address, add a command.
dns server source-ip x.x.x.x
Run the following command to check whether the DNS configuration exists on the device:
display cu | in dns
