Flush the cache

resolvectl flush-caches

NOTE: This should reduce the Cache Size entry reset to 0.

  • This works for both Ubuntu Server and Ubuntu Desktop.

The Older Method

sudo systemd-resolve --flush-caches

Check the statistics in order to make sure that your cache size is now zero, thus cleared:

sudo systemd-resolve --statistics

returns:

DNSSEC supported by current servers: no
 
Transactions                
Current Transactions: 0     
  Total Transactions: 169902
