To overcome these problems then the dns cache should be removed periodically. Mikrotik devices we could make some sort of schedule that serves to remove dns cache each time we specify. To create a schedule for these steps are as follows:

Open the winbox and make sure the time or date on mikrotik is in compliance with the current time.

Make a script that will run the dns cache removal process in mikrotik. Choose System >> Scripts

If the schedule removes dns cache was successfully executed automatically result will look like in the picture below
