NAME
unbound.conf - Unbound configuration file.
SYNOPSIS
unbound.conf
DESCRIPTION
unbound.conf is used to configure unbound(8). The file format has
attributes and values. Some attributes have attributes inside them.
The notation is: attribute: value.
Comments start with # and last to the end of line. Empty lines are
ignored as is whitespace at the beginning of a line.
The utility unbound-checkconf(8) can be used to check unbound.conf
prior to usage.
EXAMPLE
An example config file is shown below. Copy this to
/etc/unbound/unbound.conf and start the server with:
$ unbound -c /etc/unbound/unbound.conf
Most settings are the defaults. Stop the server with:
$ kill `cat /etc/unbound/unbound.pid`
Below is a minimal config file. The source distribution contains an
extensive example.conf file with all the options.
# unbound.conf(5) config file for unbound(8).
server:
directory: "/etc/unbound"
username: unbound
# make sure unbound can access entropy from inside the chroot.
# e.g. on linux the use these commands (on BSD, devfs(8) is used):
# mount --bind -n /dev/random /etc/unbound/dev/random
# and mount --bind -n /dev/log /etc/unbound/dev/log
chroot: "/etc/unbound"
# logfile: "/etc/unbound/unbound.log" #uncomment to use logfile.
pidfile: "/etc/unbound/unbound.pid"
# verbosity: 1 # uncomment and increase to get more logging.
# listen on all interfaces, answer queries from the local subnet.
interface: 0.0.0.0
interface: ::0
access-control: 10.0.0.0/8 allow
access-control: 2001:DB8::/64 allow
FILE FORMAT
There must be whitespace between keywords. Attribute keywords end with
a colon ':'. An attribute is followed by its containing attributes, or
a value.
Files can be included using the include: directive. It can appear
anywhere, it accepts a single file name as argument. Processing
continues as if the text from the included file was copied into the
config file at that point. If also using chroot, using full path names
for the included files works, relative pathnames for the included names
work if the directory where the daemon is started equals its
chroot/working directory. Wildcards can be used to include multiple
files, see glob(7).
Server Options
These options are part of the server: clause.
verbosity: <number>
The verbosity number, level 0 means no verbosity, only errors.
Level 1 gives operational information. Level 2 gives detailed
operational information. Level 3 gives query level information,
output per query. Level 4 gives algorithm level information.
Level 5 logs client identification for cache misses. Default is
level 1. The verbosity can also be increased from the
commandline, see unbound(8).
statistics-interval: <seconds>
The number of seconds between printing statistics to the log for
every thread. Disable with value 0 or "". Default is disabled.
The histogram statistics are only printed if replies were sent
during the statistics interval, requestlist statistics are
printed for every interval (but can be 0). This is because the
median calculation requires data to be present.
statistics-cumulative: <yes or no>
If enabled, statistics are cumulative since starting unbound,
without clearing the statistics counters after logging the
statistics. Default is no.
extended-statistics: <yes or no>
If enabled, extended statistics are printed from
unbound-control(8). Default is off, because keeping track of
more statistics takes time. The counters are listed in
unbound-control(8).
num-threads: <number>
The number of threads to create to serve clients. Use 1 for no
threading.
port: <port number>
The port number, default 53, on which the server responds to
queries.
interface: <ip address[@port]>
Interface to use to connect to the network. This interface is
listened to for queries from clients, and answers to clients are
given from it. Can be given multiple times to work on several
interfaces. If none are given the default is to listen to
localhost. The interfaces are not changed on a reload (kill
-HUP) but only on restart. A port number can be specified with
@port (without spaces between interface and port number), if not
specified the default port (from port) is used.
ip-address: <ip address[@port]>
Same as interface: (for easy of compatibility with nsd.conf).
interface-automatic: <yes or no>
Detect source interface on UDP queries and copy them to replies.
This feature is experimental, and needs support in your OS for
particular socket options. Default value is no.
outgoing-interface: <ip address>
Interface to use to connect to the network. This interface is
used to send queries to authoritative servers and receive their
replies. Can be given multiple times to work on several
interfaces. If none are given the default (all) is used. You can
specify the same interfaces in interface: and
outgoing-interface: lines, the interfaces are then used for both
purposes. Outgoing queries are sent via a random outgoing
interface to counter spoofing.
outgoing-range: <number>
Number of ports to open. This number of file descriptors can be
opened per thread. Must be at least 1. Default depends on
compile options. Larger numbers need extra resources from the
operating system. For performance a a very large value is best,
use libevent to make this possible.
outgoing-port-permit: <port number or range>
Permit unbound to open this port or range of ports for use to
send queries. A larger number of permitted outgoing ports
increases resilience against spoofing attempts. Make sure these
ports are not needed by other daemons. By default only ports
above 1024 that have not been assigned by IANA are used. Give a
port number or a range of the form "low-high", without spaces.
The outgoing-port-permit and outgoing-port-avoid statements are
processed in the line order of the config file, adding the
permitted ports and subtracting the avoided ports from the set
of allowed ports. The processing starts with the non IANA
allocated ports above 1024 in the set of allowed ports.
outgoing-port-avoid: <port number or range>
Do not permit unbound to open this port or range of ports for
use to send queries. Use this to make sure unbound does not grab
a port that another daemon needs. The port is avoided on all
outgoing interfaces, both IP4 and IP6. By default only ports
above 1024 that have not been assigned by IANA are used. Give a
port number or a range of the form "low-high", without spaces.
outgoing-num-tcp: <number>
Number of outgoing TCP buffers to allocate per thread. Default
is 10. If set to 0, or if do-tcp is "no", no TCP queries to
authoritative servers are done. For larger installations
increasing this value is a good idea.
incoming-num-tcp: <number>
Number of incoming TCP buffers to allocate per thread. Default
is 10. If set to 0, or if do-tcp is "no", no TCP queries from
clients are accepted. For larger installations increasing this
value is a good idea.
edns-buffer-size: <number>
Number of bytes size to advertise as the EDNS reassembly buffer
size. This is the value put into datagrams over UDP towards
peers. The actual buffer size is determined by msg-buffer-size
(both for TCP and UDP). Do not set higher than that value.
Default is 4096 which is RFC recommended. If you have
fragmentation reassembly problems, usually seen as timeouts,
then a value of 1480 can fix it. Setting to 512 bypasses even
the most stringent path MTU problems, but is seen as extreme,
since the amount of TCP fallback generated is excessive
(probably also for this resolver, consider tuning the outgoing
tcp number).
max-udp-size: <number>
Maximum UDP response size (not applied to TCP response). 65536
disables the udp response size maximum, and uses the choice from
the client, always. Suggested values are 512 to 4096. Default
is 4096.
msg-buffer-size: <number>
Number of bytes size of the message buffers. Default is 65552
bytes, enough for 64 Kb packets, the maximum DNS message size.
No message larger than this can be sent or received. Can be
reduced to use less memory, but some requests for DNS data, such
as for huge resource records, will result in a SERVFAIL reply to
the client.
msg-cache-size: <number>
Number of bytes size of the message cache. Default is 4
megabytes. A plain number is in bytes, append 'k', 'm' or 'g'
for kilobytes, megabytes or gigabytes (1024*1024 bytes in a
megabyte).
msg-cache-slabs: <number>
Number of slabs in the message cache. Slabs reduce lock
contention by threads. Must be set to a power of 2. Setting
(close) to the number of cpus is a reasonable guess.
num-queries-per-thread: <number>
The number of queries that every thread will service
simultaneously. If more queries arrive that need servicing, and
no queries can be jostled out (see jostle-timeout), then the
queries are dropped. This forces the client to resend after a
timeout; allowing the server time to work on the existing
queries. Default depends on compile options, 512 or 1024.
jostle-timeout: <msec>
Timeout used when the server is very busy. Set to a value that
usually results in one roundtrip to the authority servers. If
too many queries arrive, then 50% of the queries are allowed to
run to completion, and the other 50% are replaced with the new
incoming query if they have already spent more than their
allowed time. This protects against denial of service by slow
queries or high query rates. Default 200 milliseconds. The
effect is that the qps for long-lasting queries is about
(numqueriesperthread / 2) / (average time for such long queries)
qps. The qps for short queries can be about
(numqueriesperthread / 2) / (jostletimeout in whole seconds) qps
per thread, about (1024/2)*5 = 2560 qps by default.
delay-close: <msec>
Extra delay for timeouted UDP ports before they are closed, in
msec. Default is 0, and that disables it. This prevents very
delayed answer packets from the upstream (recursive) servers
from bouncing against closed ports and setting off all sort of
close-port counters, with eg. 1500 msec. When timeouts happen
you need extra sockets, it checks the ID and remote IP of
packets, and unwanted packets are added to the unwanted packet
counter.
so-rcvbuf: <number>
If not 0, then set the SO_RCVBUF socket option to get more
buffer space on UDP port 53 incoming queries. So that short
spikes on busy servers do not drop packets (see counter in
netstat -su). Default is 0 (use system value). Otherwise, the
number of bytes to ask for, try "4m" on a busy server. The OS
caps it at a maximum, on linux unbound needs root permission to
bypass the limit, or the admin can use sysctl net.core.rmem_max.
On BSD change kern.ipc.maxsockbuf in /etc/sysctl.conf. On
OpenBSD change header and recompile kernel. On Solaris ndd -set
/dev/udp udp_max_buf 8388608.
so-sndbuf: <number>
If not 0, then set the SO_SNDBUF socket option to get more
buffer space on UDP port 53 outgoing queries. This for very
busy servers handles spikes in answer traffic, otherwise 'send:
resource temporarily unavailable' can get logged, the buffer
overrun is also visible by netstat -su. Default is 0 (use
system value). Specify the number of bytes to ask for, try "4m"
on a very busy server. The OS caps it at a maximum, on linux
unbound needs root permission to bypass the limit, or the admin
can use sysctl net.core.wmem_max. On BSD, Solaris changes are
similar to so-rcvbuf.
so-reuseport: <yes or no>
If yes, then open dedicated listening sockets for incoming
queries for each thread and try to set the SO_REUSEPORT socket
option on each socket. May distribute incoming queries to
threads more evenly. Default is no. On Linux it is supported
in kernels >= 3.9. On other systems, FreeBSD, OSX it may also
work. You can enable it (on any platform and kernel), it then
attempts to open the port and passes the option if it was
available at compile time, if that works it is used, if it
fails, it continues silently (unless verbosity 3) without the
option.
ip-transparent: <yes or no>
If yes, then use IP_TRANSPARENT socket option on sockets where
unbound is listening for incoming traffic. Default no. Allows
you to bind to non-local interfaces. For example for
non-existant IP addresses that are going to exist later on, with
host failover configuration. This is a lot like
interface-automatic, but that one services all interfaces and
with this option you can select which (future) interfaces
unbound provides service on. This option needs unbound to be
started with root permissions on some systems.
rrset-cache-size: <number>
Number of bytes size of the RRset cache. Default is 4 megabytes.
A plain number is in bytes, append 'k', 'm' or 'g' for
kilobytes, megabytes or gigabytes (1024*1024 bytes in a
megabyte).
rrset-cache-slabs: <number>
Number of slabs in the RRset cache. Slabs reduce lock contention
by threads. Must be set to a power of 2.
cache-max-ttl: <seconds>
Time to live maximum for RRsets and messages in the cache.
Default is 86400 seconds (1 day). If the maximum kicks in,
responses to clients still get decrementing TTLs based on the
original (larger) values. When the internal TTL expires, the
cache item has expired. Can be set lower to force the resolver
to query for data often, and not trust (very large) TTL values.
cache-min-ttl: <seconds>
Time to live minimum for RRsets and messages in the cache.
Default is 0. If the minimum kicks in, the data is cached for
longer than the domain owner intended, and thus less queries are
made to look up the data. Zero makes sure the data in the cache
is as the domain owner intended, higher values, especially more
than an hour or so, can lead to trouble as the data in the cache
does not match up with the actual data any more.
cache-max-negative-ttl: <seconds>
Time to live maximum for negative responses, these have a SOA in
the authority section that is limited in time. Default is 3600.
infra-host-ttl: <seconds>
Time to live for entries in the host cache. The host cache
contains roundtrip timing, lameness and EDNS support
information. Default is 900.
infra-cache-slabs: <number>
Number of slabs in the infrastructure cache. Slabs reduce lock
contention by threads. Must be set to a power of 2.
infra-cache-numhosts: <number>
Number of hosts for which information is cached. Default is
10000.
infra-cache-min-rtt: <msec>
Lower limit for dynamic retransmit timeout calculation in
infrastructure cache. Default is 50 milliseconds. Increase this
value if using forwarders needing more time to do recursive name
resolution.
do-ip4: <yes or no>
Enable or disable whether ip4 queries are answered or issued.
Default is yes.
do-ip6: <yes or no>
Enable or disable whether ip6 queries are answered or issued.
Default is yes. If disabled, queries are not answered on IPv6,
and queries are not sent on IPv6 to the internet nameservers.
With this option you can disable the ipv6 transport for sending
DNS traffic, it does not impact the contents of the DNS traffic,
which may have ip4 and ip6 addresses in it.
do-udp: <yes or no>
Enable or disable whether UDP queries are answered or issued.
Default is yes.
do-tcp: <yes or no>
Enable or disable whether TCP queries are answered or issued.
Default is yes.
tcp-upstream: <yes or no>
Enable or disable whether the upstream queries use TCP only for
transport. Default is no. Useful in tunneling scenarios.
ssl-upstream: <yes or no>
Enabled or disable whether the upstream queries use SSL only for
transport. Default is no. Useful in tunneling scenarios. The
SSL contains plain DNS in TCP wireformat. The other server must
support this (see ssl-service-key).
ssl-service-key: <file>
If enabled, the server provider SSL service on its TCP sockets.
The clients have to use ssl-upstream: yes. The file is the
private key for the TLS session. The public certificate is in
the ssl-service-pem file. Default is "", turned off. Requires
a restart (a reload is not enough) if changed, because the
private key is read while root permissions are held and before
chroot (if any). Normal DNS TCP service is not provided and
gives errors, this service is best run with a different port:
config or @port suffixes in the interface config.
ssl-service-pem: <file>
The public key certificate pem file for the ssl service.
Default is "", turned off.
ssl-port: <number>
The port number on which to provide TCP SSL service, default
443, only interfaces configured with that port number as @number
get the SSL service.
do-daemonize: <yes or no>
Enable or disable whether the unbound server forks into the
background as a daemon. Default is yes.
access-control: <IP netblock> <action>
The netblock is given as an IP4 or IP6 address with /size
appended for a classless network block. The action can be deny,
refuse, allow, allow_snoop, deny_non_local or refuse_non_local.
The most specific netblock match is used, if none match deny is
used.
The action deny stops queries from hosts from that netblock.
The action refuse stops queries too, but sends a DNS rcode
REFUSED error message back.
The action allow gives access to clients from that netblock. It
gives only access for recursion clients (which is what almost
all clients need). Nonrecursive queries are refused.
The allow action does allow nonrecursive queries to access the
local-data that is configured. The reason is that this does not
involve the unbound server recursive lookup algorithm, and
static data is served in the reply. This supports normal
operations where nonrecursive queries are made for the
authoritative data. For nonrecursive queries any replies from
the dynamic cache are refused.
The action allow_snoop gives nonrecursive access too. This give
both recursive and non recursive access. The name allow_snoop
refers to cache snooping, a technique to use nonrecursive
queries to examine the cache contents (for malicious acts).
However, nonrecursive queries can also be a valuable debugging
tool (when you want to examine the cache contents). In that case
use allow_snoop for your administration host.
By default only localhost is allowed, the rest is refused. The
default is refused, because that is protocol-friendly. The DNS
protocol is not designed to handle dropped packets due to
policy, and dropping may result in (possibly excessive) retried
queries.
The deny_non_local and refuse_non_local settings are for hosts
that are only allowed to query for the authoritative local-data,
they are not allowed full recursion but only the static data.
With deny_non_local, messages that are disallowed are dropped,
with refuse_non_local they receive error code REFUSED.
chroot: <directory>
If chroot is enabled, you should pass the configfile (from the
commandline) as a full path from the original root. After the
chroot has been performed the now defunct portion of the config
file path is removed to be able to reread the config after a
reload.
All other file paths (working dir, logfile, roothints, and key
files) can be specified in several ways: as an absolute path
relative to the new root, as a relative path to the working
directory, or as an absolute path relative to the original root.
In the last case the path is adjusted to remove the unused
portion.
The pidfile can be either a relative path to the working
directory, or an absolute path relative to the original root. It
is written just prior to chroot and dropping permissions. This
allows the pidfile to be /var/run/unbound.pid and the chroot to
be /var/unbound, for example.
Additionally, unbound may need to access /dev/random (for
entropy) from inside the chroot.
If given a chroot is done to the given directory. The default is
"/usr/local/etc/unbound". If you give "" no chroot is performed.
username: <name>
If given, after binding the port the user privileges are
dropped. Default is "unbound". If you give username: "" no user
change is performed.
If this user is not capable of binding the port, reloads (by
signal HUP) will still retain the opened ports. If you change
the port number in the config file, and that new port number
requires privileges, then a reload will fail; a restart is
needed.
directory: <directory>
Sets the working directory for the program. Default is
"/usr/local/etc/unbound".
logfile: <filename>
If "" is given, logging goes to stderr, or nowhere once
daemonized. The logfile is appended to, in the following
format:
[seconds since 1970] unbound[pid:tid]: type: message.
If this option is given, the use-syslog is option is set to
"no". The logfile is reopened (for append) when the config file
is reread, on SIGHUP.
use-syslog: <yes or no>
Sets unbound to send log messages to the syslogd, using
syslog(3). The log facility LOG_DAEMON is used, with identity
"unbound". The logfile setting is overridden when use-syslog is
turned on. The default is to log to syslog.
log-time-ascii: <yes or no>
Sets logfile lines to use a timestamp in UTC ascii. Default is
no, which prints the seconds since 1970 in brackets. No effect
if using syslog, in that case syslog formats the timestamp
printed into the log files.
log-queries: <yes or no>
Prints one line per query to the log, with the log timestamp and
IP address, name, type and class. Default is no. Note that it
takes time to print these lines which makes the server
(significantly) slower. Odd (nonprintable) characters in names
are printed as '?'.
pidfile: <filename>
The process id is written to the file. Default is
"/usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound.pid". So,
kill -HUP `cat /usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound.pid`
triggers a reload,
kill -QUIT `cat /usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound.pid`
gracefully terminates.
root-hints: <filename>
Read the root hints from this file. Default is nothing, using
builtin hints for the IN class. The file has the format of zone
files, with root nameserver names and addresses only. The
default may become outdated, when servers change, therefore it
is good practice to use a root-hints file.
hide-identity: <yes or no>
If enabled id.server and hostname.bind queries are refused.
identity: <string>
Set the identity to report. If set to "", the default, then the
hostname of the server is returned.
hide-version: <yes or no>
If enabled version.server and version.bind queries are refused.
version: <string>
Set the version to report. If set to "", the default, then the
package version is returned.
target-fetch-policy: <"list of numbers">
Set the target fetch policy used by unbound to determine if it
should fetch nameserver target addresses opportunistically. The
policy is described per dependency depth.
The number of values determines the maximum dependency depth
that unbound will pursue in answering a query. A value of -1
means to fetch all targets opportunistically for that dependency
depth. A value of 0 means to fetch on demand only. A positive
value fetches that many targets opportunistically.
Enclose the list between quotes ("") and put spaces between
numbers. The default is "3 2 1 0 0". Setting all zeroes, "0 0 0
0 0" gives behaviour closer to that of BIND 9, while setting "-1
-1 -1 -1 -1" gives behaviour rumoured to be closer to that of
BIND 8.
harden-short-bufsize: <yes or no>
Very small EDNS buffer sizes from queries are ignored. Default
is off, since it is legal protocol wise to send these, and
unbound tries to give very small answers to these queries, where
possible.
harden-large-queries: <yes or no>
Very large queries are ignored. Default is off, since it is
legal protocol wise to send these, and could be necessary for
operation if TSIG or EDNS payload is very large.
harden-glue: <yes or no>
Will trust glue only if it is within the servers authority.
Default is on.
harden-dnssec-stripped: <yes or no>
Require DNSSEC data for trust-anchored zones, if such data is
absent, the zone becomes bogus. If turned off, and no DNSSEC
data is received (or the DNSKEY data fails to validate), then
the zone is made insecure, this behaves like there is no trust
anchor. You could turn this off if you are sometimes behind an
intrusive firewall (of some sort) that removes DNSSEC data from
packets, or a zone changes from signed to unsigned to badly
signed often. If turned off you run the risk of a downgrade
attack that disables security for a zone. Default is on.
harden-below-nxdomain: <yes or no>
From draft-vixie-dnsext-resimprove, returns nxdomain to queries
for a name below another name that is already known to be
nxdomain. DNSSEC mandates noerror for empty nonterminals, hence
this is possible. Very old software might return nxdomain for
empty nonterminals (that usually happen for reverse IP address
lookups), and thus may be incompatible with this. To try to
avoid this only DNSSEC-secure nxdomains are used, because the
old software does not have DNSSEC. Default is off.
harden-referral-path: <yes or no>
Harden the referral path by performing additional queries for
infrastructure data. Validates the replies if trust anchors are
configured and the zones are signed. This enforces DNSSEC
validation on nameserver NS sets and the nameserver addresses
that are encountered on the referral path to the answer.
Default off, because it burdens the authority servers, and it is
not RFC standard, and could lead to performance problems because
of the extra query load that is generated. Experimental option.
If you enable it consider adding more numbers after the
target-fetch-policy to increase the max depth that is checked
to.
harden-algo-downgrade: <yes or no>
Harden against algorithm downgrade when multiple algorithms are
advertised in the DS record. If no, allows the weakest
algorithm to validate the zone. Default is no. Zone signers
must produce zones that allow this feature to work, but
sometimes they do not, and turning this option off avoids that
validation failure.
use-caps-for-id: <yes or no>
Use 0x20-encoded random bits in the query to foil spoof
attempts. This perturbs the lowercase and uppercase of query
names sent to authority servers and checks if the reply still
has the correct casing. Disabled by default. This feature is
an experimental implementation of draft dns-0x20.
caps-whitelist: <domain>
Whitelist the domain so that it does not receive caps-for-id
perturbed queries. For domains that do not support 0x20 and
also fail with fallback because they keep sending different
answers, like some load balancers. Can be given multiple times,
for different domains.
private-address: <IP address or subnet>
Give IPv4 of IPv6 addresses or classless subnets. These are
addresses on your private network, and are not allowed to be
returned for public internet names. Any occurence of such
addresses are removed from DNS answers. Additionally, the DNSSEC
validator may mark the answers bogus. This protects against
so-called DNS Rebinding, where a user browser is turned into a
network proxy, allowing remote access through the browser to
other parts of your private network. Some names can be allowed
to contain your private addresses, by default all the local-data
that you configured is allowed to, and you can specify
additional names using private-domain. No private addresses are
enabled by default. We consider to enable this for the RFC1918
private IP address space by default in later releases. That
would enable private addresses for 10.0.0.0/8 172.16.0.0/12
192.168.0.0/16 169.254.0.0/16 fd00::/8 and fe80::/10, since the
RFC standards say these addresses should not be visible on the
public internet. Turning on 127.0.0.0/8 would hinder many
spamblocklists as they use that.
private-domain: <domain name>
Allow this domain, and all its subdomains to contain private
addresses. Give multiple times to allow multiple domain names
to contain private addresses. Default is none.
unwanted-reply-threshold: <number>
If set, a total number of unwanted replies is kept track of in
every thread. When it reaches the threshold, a defensive action
is taken and a warning is printed to the log. The defensive
action is to clear the rrset and message caches, hopefully
flushing away any poison. A value of 10 million is suggested.
Default is 0 (turned off).
do-not-query-address: <IP address>
Do not query the given IP address. Can be IP4 or IP6. Append
/num to indicate a classless delegation netblock, for example
like 10.2.3.4/24 or 2001::11/64.
do-not-query-localhost: <yes or no>
If yes, localhost is added to the do-not-query-address entries,
both IP6 ::1 and IP4 127.0.0.1/8. If no, then localhost can be
used to send queries to. Default is yes.
prefetch: <yes or no>
If yes, message cache elements are prefetched before they expire
to keep the cache up to date. Default is no. Turning it on
gives about 10 percent more traffic and load on the machine, but
popular items do not expire from the cache.
prefetch-key: <yes or no>
If yes, fetch the DNSKEYs earlier in the validation process,
when a DS record is encountered. This lowers the latency of
requests. It does use a little more CPU. Also if the cache is
set to 0, it is no use. Default is no.
rrset-roundrobin: <yes or no>
If yes, Unbound rotates RRSet order in response (the random
number is taken from the query ID, for speed and thread safety).
Default is no.
minimal-responses: <yes or no>
If yes, Unbound doesn't insert authority/additional sections
into response messages when those sections are not required.
This reduces response size significantly, and may avoid TCP
fallback for some responses. This may cause a slight speedup.
The default is no, because the DNS protocol RFCs mandate these
sections, and the additional content could be of use and save
roundtrips for clients.
module-config: <"module names">
Module configuration, a list of module names separated by
spaces, surround the string with quotes (""). The modules can be
validator, iterator. Setting this to "iterator" will result in
a non-validating server. Setting this to "validator iterator"
will turn on DNSSEC validation. The ordering of the modules is
important. You must also set trust-anchors for validation to be
useful.
trust-anchor-file: <filename>
File with trusted keys for validation. Both DS and DNSKEY
entries can appear in the file. The format of the file is the
standard DNS Zone file format. Default is "", or no trust
anchor file.
auto-trust-anchor-file: <filename>
File with trust anchor for one zone, which is tracked with
RFC5011 probes. The probes are several times per month, thus
the machine must be online frequently. The initial file can be
one with contents as described in trust-anchor-file. The file
is written to when the anchor is updated, so the unbound user
must have write permission.
trust-anchor: <"Resource Record">
A DS or DNSKEY RR for a key to use for validation. Multiple
entries can be given to specify multiple trusted keys, in
addition to the trust-anchor-files. The resource record is
entered in the same format as 'dig' or 'drill' prints them, the
same format as in the zone file. Has to be on a single line,
with "" around it. A TTL can be specified for ease of cut and
paste, but is ignored. A class can be specified, but class IN
is default.
trusted-keys-file: <filename>
File with trusted keys for validation. Specify more than one
file with several entries, one file per entry. Like
trust-anchor-file but has a different file format. Format is
BIND-9 style format, the trusted-keys { name flag proto algo
"key"; }; clauses are read. It is possible to use wildcards
with this statement, the wildcard is expanded on start and on
reload.
dlv-anchor-file: <filename>
This option was used during early days DNSSEC deployment when no
parent-side DS record registrations were easily available.
Nowadays, it is best to have DS records registered with the
parent zone (many top level zones are signed). File with
trusted keys for DLV (DNSSEC Lookaside Validation). Both DS and
DNSKEY entries can be used in the file, in the same format as
for trust-anchor-file: statements. Only one DLV can be
configured, more would be slow. The DLV configured is used as a
root trusted DLV, this means that it is a lookaside for the
root. Default is "", or no dlv anchor file. DLV is going to be
decommissioned. Please do not use it any more.
dlv-anchor: <"Resource Record">
Much like trust-anchor, this is a DLV anchor with the DS or
DNSKEY inline. DLV is going to be decommissioned. Please do
not use it any more.
domain-insecure: <domain name>
Sets domain name to be insecure, DNSSEC chain of trust is
ignored towards the domain name. So a trust anchor above the
domain name can not make the domain secure with a DS record,
such a DS record is then ignored. Also keys from DLV are
ignored for the domain. Can be given multiple times to specify
multiple domains that are treated as if unsigned. If you set
trust anchors for the domain they override this setting (and the
domain is secured).
This can be useful if you want to make sure a trust anchor for
external lookups does not affect an (unsigned) internal domain.
A DS record externally can create validation failures for that
internal domain.
val-override-date: <rrsig-style date spec>
Default is "" or "0", which disables this debugging feature. If
enabled by giving a RRSIG style date, that date is used for
verifying RRSIG inception and expiration dates, instead of the
current date. Do not set this unless you are debugging signature
inception and expiration. The value -1 ignores the date
altogether, useful for some special applications.
val-sig-skew-min: <seconds>
Minimum number of seconds of clock skew to apply to validated
signatures. A value of 10% of the signature lifetime
(expiration - inception) is used, capped by this setting.
Default is 3600 (1 hour) which allows for daylight savings
differences. Lower this value for more strict checking of short
lived signatures.
val-sig-skew-max: <seconds>
Maximum number of seconds of clock skew to apply to validated
signatures. A value of 10% of the signature lifetime
(expiration - inception) is used, capped by this setting.
Default is 86400 (24 hours) which allows for timezone setting
problems in stable domains. Setting both min and max very low
disables the clock skew allowances. Setting both min and max
very high makes the validator check the signature timestamps
less strictly.
val-bogus-ttl: <number>
The time to live for bogus data. This is data that has failed
validation; due to invalid signatures or other checks. The TTL
from that data cannot be trusted, and this value is used
instead. The value is in seconds, default 60. The time interval
prevents repeated revalidation of bogus data.
val-clean-additional: <yes or no>
Instruct the validator to remove data from the additional
section of secure messages that are not signed properly.
Messages that are insecure, bogus, indeterminate or unchecked
are not affected. Default is yes. Use this setting to protect
the users that rely on this validator for authentication from
protentially bad data in the additional section.
val-log-level: <number>
Have the validator print validation failures to the log.
Regardless of the verbosity setting. Default is 0, off. At 1,
for every user query that fails a line is printed to the logs.
This way you can monitor what happens with validation. Use a
diagnosis tool, such as dig or drill, to find out why validation
is failing for these queries. At 2, not only the query that
failed is printed but also the reason why unbound thought it was
wrong and which server sent the faulty data.
val-permissive-mode: <yes or no>
Instruct the validator to mark bogus messages as indeterminate.
The security checks are performed, but if the result is bogus
(failed security), the reply is not withheld from the client
with SERVFAIL as usual. The client receives the bogus data. For
messages that are found to be secure the AD bit is set in
replies. Also logging is performed as for full validation. The
default value is "no".
ignore-cd-flag: <yes or no>
Instruct unbound to ignore the CD flag from clients and refuse
to return bogus answers to them. Thus, the CD (Checking
Disabled) flag does not disable checking any more. This is
useful if legacy (w2008) servers that set the CD flag but cannot
validate DNSSEC themselves are the clients, and then unbound
provides them with DNSSEC protection. The default value is
"no".
val-nsec3-keysize-iterations: <"list of values">
List of keysize and iteration count values, separated by spaces,
surrounded by quotes. Default is "1024 150 2048 500 4096 2500".
This determines the maximum allowed NSEC3 iteration count before
a message is simply marked insecure instead of performing the
many hashing iterations. The list must be in ascending order and
have at least one entry. If you set it to "1024 65535" there is
no restriction to NSEC3 iteration values. This table must be
kept short; a very long list could cause slower operation.
add-holddown: <seconds>
Instruct the auto-trust-anchor-file probe mechanism for RFC5011
autotrust updates to add new trust anchors only after they have
been visible for this time. Default is 30 days as per the RFC.
del-holddown: <seconds>
Instruct the auto-trust-anchor-file probe mechanism for RFC5011
autotrust updates to remove revoked trust anchors after they
have been kept in the revoked list for this long. Default is 30
days as per the RFC.
keep-missing: <seconds>
Instruct the auto-trust-anchor-file probe mechanism for RFC5011
autotrust updates to remove missing trust anchors after they
have been unseen for this long. This cleans up the state file
if the target zone does not perform trust anchor revocation, so
this makes the auto probe mechanism work with zones that perform
regular (non-5011) rollovers. The default is 366 days. The
value 0 does not remove missing anchors, as per the RFC.
permit-small-holddown: <yes or no>
Debug option that allows the autotrust 5011 rollover timers to
assume very small values. Default is no.
key-cache-size: <number>
Number of bytes size of the key cache. Default is 4 megabytes.
A plain number is in bytes, append 'k', 'm' or 'g' for
kilobytes, megabytes or gigabytes (1024*1024 bytes in a
megabyte).
key-cache-slabs: <number>
Number of slabs in the key cache. Slabs reduce lock contention
by threads. Must be set to a power of 2. Setting (close) to the
number of cpus is a reasonable guess.
neg-cache-size: <number>
Number of bytes size of the aggressive negative cache. Default
is 1 megabyte. A plain number is in bytes, append 'k', 'm' or
'g' for kilobytes, megabytes or gigabytes (1024*1024 bytes in a
megabyte).
unblock-lan-zones: <yesno>
Default is disabled. If enabled, then for private address
space, the reverse lookups are no longer filtered. This allows
unbound when running as dns service on a host where it provides
service for that host, to put out all of the queries for the
'lan' upstream. When enabled, only localhost, 127.0.0.1 reverse
and ::1 reverse zones are configured with default local zones.
Disable the option when unbound is running as a (DHCP-) DNS
network resolver for a group of machines, where such lookups
should be filtered (RFC compliance), this also stops potential
data leakage about the local network to the upstream DNS
servers.
local-zone: <zone> <type>
Configure a local zone. The type determines the answer to give
if there is no match from local-data. The types are deny,
refuse, static, transparent, redirect, nodefault,
typetransparent, inform, inform_deny, and are explained below.
After that the default settings are listed. Use local-data: to
enter data into the local zone. Answers for local zones are
authoritative DNS answers. By default the zones are class IN.
If you need more complicated authoritative data, with referrals,
wildcards, CNAME/DNAME support, or DNSSEC authoritative service,
setup a stub-zone for it as detailed in the stub zone section
below.
deny Do not send an answer, drop the query. If there is a match
from local data, the query is answered.
refuse
Send an error message reply, with rcode REFUSED. If there is
a match from local data, the query is answered.
static
If there is a match from local data, the query is answered.
Otherwise, the query is answered with nodata or nxdomain.
For a negative answer a SOA is included in the answer if
present as local-data for the zone apex domain.
transparent
If there is a match from local data, the query is answered.
Otherwise if the query has a different name, the query is
resolved normally. If the query is for a name given in
localdata but no such type of data is given in localdata,
then a noerror nodata answer is returned. If no local-zone
is given local-data causes a transparent zone to be created
by default.
typetransparent
If there is a match from local data, the query is answered.
If the query is for a different name, or for the same name
but for a different type, the query is resolved normally.
So, similar to transparent but types that are not listed in
local data are resolved normally, so if an A record is in the
local data that does not cause a nodata reply for AAAA
queries.
redirect
The query is answered from the local data for the zone name.
There may be no local data beneath the zone name. This
answers queries for the zone, and all subdomains of the zone
with the local data for the zone. It can be used to redirect
a domain to return a different address record to the end
user, with local-zone: "example.com." redirect and
local-data: "example.com. A 127.0.0.1" queries for
www.example.com and www.foo.example.com are redirected, so
that users with web browsers cannot access sites with suffix
example.com.
inform
The query is answered normally. The client IP address
(@portnumber) is printed to the logfile. The log message is:
timestamp, unbound-pid, info: zonename inform IP@port
queryname type class. This option can be used for normal
resolution, but machines looking up infected names are
logged, eg. to run antivirus on them.
inform_deny
The query is dropped, like 'deny', and logged, like 'inform'.
Ie. find infected machines without answering the queries.
nodefault
Used to turn off default contents for AS112 zones. The other
types also turn off default contents for the zone. The
'nodefault' option has no other effect than turning off
default contents for the given zone. Use nodefault if you
use exactly that zone, if you want to use a subzone, use
transparent.
The default zones are localhost, reverse 127.0.0.1 and ::1, and the
AS112 zones. The AS112 zones are reverse DNS zones for private use and
reserved IP addresses for which the servers on the internet cannot
provide correct answers. They are configured by default to give
nxdomain (no reverse information) answers. The defaults can be turned
off by specifying your own local-zone of that name, or using the
'nodefault' type. Below is a list of the default zone contents.
localhost
The IP4 and IP6 localhost information is given. NS and SOA
records are provided for completeness and to satisfy some DNS
update tools. Default content:
local-zone: "localhost." static
local-data: "localhost. 10800 IN NS localhost."
local-data: "localhost. 10800 IN
SOA localhost. nobody.invalid. 1 3600 1200 604800 10800"
local-data: "localhost. 10800 IN A 127.0.0.1"
local-data: "localhost. 10800 IN AAAA ::1"
reverse IPv4 loopback
Default content:
local-zone: "127.in-addr.arpa." static
local-data: "127.in-addr.arpa. 10800 IN NS localhost."
local-data: "127.in-addr.arpa. 10800 IN
SOA localhost. nobody.invalid. 1 3600 1200 604800 10800"
local-data: "1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa. 10800 IN
PTR localhost."
reverse IPv6 loopback
Default content:
local-zone: "1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.
0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.ip6.arpa." static
local-data: "1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.
0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.ip6.arpa. 10800 IN
NS localhost."
local-data: "1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.
0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.ip6.arpa. 10800 IN
SOA localhost. nobody.invalid. 1 3600 1200 604800 10800"
local-data: "1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.
0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.ip6.arpa. 10800 IN
PTR localhost."
reverse RFC1918 local use zones
Reverse data for zones 10.in-addr.arpa, 16.172.in-addr.arpa
to 31.172.in-addr.arpa, 168.192.in-addr.arpa. The
local-zone: is set static and as local-data: SOA and NS
records are provided.
reverse RFC3330 IP4 this, link-local, testnet and broadcast
Reverse data for zones 0.in-addr.arpa, 254.169.in-addr.arpa,
2.0.192.in-addr.arpa (TEST NET 1), 100.51.198.in-addr.arpa
(TEST NET 2), 113.0.203.in-addr.arpa (TEST NET 3),
255.255.255.255.in-addr.arpa. And from 64.100.in-addr.arpa
to 127.100.in-addr.arpa (Shared Address Space).
reverse RFC4291 IP6 unspecified
Reverse data for zone
0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.
0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.ip6.arpa.
reverse RFC4193 IPv6 Locally Assigned Local Addresses
Reverse data for zone D.F.ip6.arpa.
reverse RFC4291 IPv6 Link Local Addresses
Reverse data for zones 8.E.F.ip6.arpa to B.E.F.ip6.arpa.
reverse IPv6 Example Prefix
Reverse data for zone 8.B.D.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. This zone is
used for tutorials and examples. You can remove the block on
this zone with:
local-zone: 8.B.D.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. nodefault
You can also selectively unblock a part of the zone by making
that part transparent with a local-zone statement. This also
works with the other default zones.
local-data: "<resource record string>"
Configure local data, which is served in reply to queries for it.
The query has to match exactly unless you configure the local-zone
as redirect. If not matched exactly, the local-zone type
determines further processing. If local-data is configured that is
not a subdomain of a local-zone, a transparent local-zone is
configured. For record types such as TXT, use single quotes, as
in local-data: 'example. TXT "text"'.
If you need more complicated authoritative data, with referrals,
wildcards, CNAME/DNAME support, or DNSSEC authoritative service,
setup a stub-zone for it as detailed in the stub zone section
below.
local-data-ptr: "IPaddr name"
Configure local data shorthand for a PTR record with the reversed
IPv4 or IPv6 address and the host name. For example "192.0.2.4
www.example.com". TTL can be inserted like this: "2001:DB8::4
7200 www.example.com"
ratelimit: <number or 0>
Enable ratelimiting of queries sent to nameserver for performing
recursion. If 0, the default, it is disabled. This option is
experimental at this time. The ratelimit is in queries per second
that are allowed. More queries are turned away with an error
(servfail). This stops recursive floods, eg. random query names,
but not spoofed reflection floods. Cached responses are not
ratelimited by this setting. The zone of the query is determined
by examining the nameservers for it, the zone name is used to keep
track of the rate. For example, 1000 may be a suitable value to
stop the server from being overloaded with random names, and keeps
unbound from sending traffic to the nameservers for those zones.
ratelimit-size: <memory size>
Give the size of the data structure in which the current ongoing
rates are kept track in. Default 4m. In bytes or use m(mega),
k(kilo), g(giga). The ratelimit structure is small, so this data
structure likely does not need to be large.
ratelimit-slabs: <number>
Give power of 2 number of slabs, this is used to reduce lock
contention in the ratelimit tracking data structure. Close to the
number of cpus is a fairly good setting.
ratelimit-factor: <number>
Set the amount of queries to rate limit when the limit is
exceeded. If set to 0, all queries are dropped for domains where
the limit is exceeded. If set to another value, 1 in that number
is allowed through to complete. Default is 10, allowing 1/10
traffic to flow normally. This can make ordinary queries complete
(if repeatedly queried for), and enter the cache, whilst also
mitigiting the traffic flow by the factor given.
ratelimit-for-domain: <domain> <number qps>
Override the global ratelimit for an exact match domain name with
the listed number. You can give this for any number of names.
For example, for a top-level-domain you may want to have a higher
limit than other names.
ratelimit-below-domain: <domain> <number qps>
Override the global ratelimit for a domain name that ends in this
name. You can give this multiple times, it then describes
different settings in different parts of the namespace. The
closest matching suffix is used to determine the qps limit. The
rate for the exact matching domain name is not changed, use
ratelimit-for-domain to set that, you might want to use different
settings for a top-level-domain and subdomains.
Remote Control Options
In the remote-control: clause are the declarations for the remote
control facility. If this is enabled, the unbound-control(8) utility
can be used to send commands to the running unbound server. The server
uses these clauses to setup SSLv3 / TLSv1 security for the connection.
The unbound-control(8) utility also reads the remote-control section
for options. To setup the correct self-signed certificates use the
unbound-control-setup(8) utility.
control-enable: <yes or no>
The option is used to enable remote control, default is "no". If
turned off, the server does not listen for control commands.
control-interface: <ip address or path>
Give IPv4 or IPv6 addresses or local socket path to listen on for
control commands. By default localhost (127.0.0.1 and ::1) is
listened to. Use 0.0.0.0 and ::0 to listen to all interfaces. If
you change this and permissions have been dropped, you must
restart the server for the change to take effect.
control-port: <port number>
The port number to listen on for IPv4 or IPv6 control interfaces,
default is 8953. If you change this and permissions have been
dropped, you must restart the server for the change to take
effect.
control-use-cert: <yes or no>
Whether to require certificate authentication of control
connections. The default is "yes". This should not be changed
unless there are other mechanisms in place to prevent untrusted
users from accessing the remote control interface.
server-key-file: <private key file>
Path to the server private key, by default unbound_server.key.
This file is generated by the unbound-control-setup utility. This
file is used by the unbound server, but not by unbound-control.
server-cert-file: <certificate file.pem>
Path to the server self signed certificate, by default
unbound_server.pem. This file is generated by the
unbound-control-setup utility. This file is used by the unbound
server, and also by unbound-control.
control-key-file: <private key file>
Path to the control client private key, by default
unbound_control.key. This file is generated by the
unbound-control-setup utility. This file is used by
unbound-control.
control-cert-file: <certificate file.pem>
Path to the control client certificate, by default
unbound_control.pem. This certificate has to be signed with the
server certificate. This file is generated by the
unbound-control-setup utility. This file is used by
unbound-control.
Stub Zone Options
There may be multiple stub-zone: clauses. Each with a name: and zero or
more hostnames or IP addresses. For the stub zone this list of
nameservers is used. Class IN is assumed. The servers should be
authority servers, not recursors; unbound performs the recursive
processing itself for stub zones.
The stub zone can be used to configure authoritative data to be used by
the resolver that cannot be accessed using the public internet servers.
This is useful for company-local data or private zones. Setup an
authoritative server on a different host (or different port). Enter a
config entry for unbound with stub-addr: <ip address of host[@port]>.
The unbound resolver can then access the data, without referring to the
public internet for it.
This setup allows DNSSEC signed zones to be served by that
authoritative server, in which case a trusted key entry with the public
key can be put in config, so that unbound can validate the data and set
the AD bit on replies for the private zone (authoritative servers do
not set the AD bit). This setup makes unbound capable of answering
queries for the private zone, and can even set the AD bit
('authentic'), but the AA ('authoritative') bit is not set on these
replies.
Consider adding server: statements for domain-insecure: and for
local-zone: name nodefault for the zone if it is a locally served zone.
The insecure clause stops DNSSEC from invalidating the zone. The local
zone nodefault (or transparent) clause makes the (reverse-) zone bypass
unbound's filtering of RFC1918 zones.
name: <domain name>
Name of the stub zone.
stub-host: <domain name>
Name of stub zone nameserver. Is itself resolved before it is
used.
stub-addr: <IP address>
IP address of stub zone nameserver. Can be IP 4 or IP 6. To use
a nondefault port for DNS communication append '@' with the port
number.
stub-prime: <yes or no>
This option is by default off. If enabled it performs NS set
priming, which is similar to root hints, where it starts using
the list of nameservers currently published by the zone. Thus,
if the hint list is slightly outdated, the resolver picks up a
correct list online.
stub-first: <yes or no>
If enabled, a query is attempted without the stub clause if it
fails. The data could not be retrieved and would have caused
SERVFAIL because the servers are unreachable, instead it is
tried without this clause. The default is no.
Forward Zone Options
There may be multiple forward-zone: clauses. Each with a name: and zero
or more hostnames or IP addresses. For the forward zone this list of
nameservers is used to forward the queries to. The servers listed as
forward-host: and forward-addr: have to handle further recursion for
the query. Thus, those servers are not authority servers, but are
(just like unbound is) recursive servers too; unbound does not perform
recursion itself for the forward zone, it lets the remote server do it.
Class IN is assumed. A forward-zone entry with name "." and a
forward-addr target will forward all queries to that other server
(unless it can answer from the cache).
name: <domain name>
Name of the forward zone.
forward-host: <domain name>
Name of server to forward to. Is itself resolved before it is
used.
forward-addr: <IP address>
IP address of server to forward to. Can be IP 4 or IP 6. To use
a nondefault port for DNS communication append '@' with the port
number.
forward-first: <yes or no>
If enabled, a query is attempted without the forward clause if
it fails. The data could not be retrieved and would have caused
SERVFAIL because the servers are unreachable, instead it is
tried without this clause. The default is no.
Python Module Options
The python: clause gives the settings for the python(1) script module.
This module acts like the iterator and validator modules do, on queries
and answers. To enable the script module it has to be compiled into
the daemon, and the word "python" has to be put in the module-config:
option (usually first, or between the validator and iterator).
python-script: <python file>
The script file to load.
DNS64 Module Options
The dns64 module must be configured in the module-config: "dns64
validator iterator" directive and be compiled into the daemon to be
enabled. These settings go in the server: section.
dns64-prefix: <IPv6 prefix>
This sets the DNS64 prefix to use to synthesize AAAA records
with. It must be /96 or shorter. The default prefix is
64:ff9b::/96.
dns64-synthall: <yes or no>
Debug option, default no. If enabled, synthesize all AAAA
records despite the presence of actual AAAA records.
MEMORY CONTROL EXAMPLE
In the example config settings below memory usage is reduced. Some
service levels are lower, notable very large data and a high TCP load
are no longer supported. Very large data and high TCP loads are
exceptional for the DNS. DNSSEC validation is enabled, just add trust
anchors. If you do not have to worry about programs using more than 3
Mb of memory, the below example is not for you. Use the defaults to
receive full service, which on BSD-32bit tops out at 30-40 Mb after
heavy usage.
# example settings that reduce memory usage
server:
num-threads: 1
outgoing-num-tcp: 1 # this limits TCP service, uses less buffers.
incoming-num-tcp: 1
outgoing-range: 60 # uses less memory, but less performance.
msg-buffer-size: 8192 # note this limits service, 'no huge stuff'.
msg-cache-size: 100k
