> IMPORTANT!
>FTLDNS will _disable_ any existing installations of `dnsmasq`. This is because FTLDNS _is_ `dnsmasq` + Pi-hole's code, so both cannot run simultaneously.
## Post-install: Gain insight into your network's activity
As mentioned earlier, FTLDNS will be enabled by default when you install Pi-hole. To access the Web interface, navigate to `http://pi.hole/admin` or `http://<IP OF YOUR PIHOLE>/admin`.
Once logged in, (or authenticated to the API) you can view your network stats to see things like:
- the domains being queried on your network
- the time the queries were initiated
- the amount of domains that were blocked
- the upstream server queries were sent to
- the type of queries (`A`, `AAAA`, `CNAME`, `SRV`, `TXT`, etc.)

## Pi-hole is free, but powered by your support
There are many reoccurring costs involved with maintaining free, open source, and privacy respecting software; expenses which [our volunteer developers](https://github.com/orgs/pi-hole/people) pitch in to cover out-of-pocket. This is just one example of how strongly we feel about our software, as well as the importance of keeping it maintained.
Make no mistake: **your support is absolutely vital to help keep us innovating!**
