==Resolve and Hosts Files==
The <b>Resolve and Hosts Files</b> section is used to configure the usage of these files:

    <li><b><i>/etc/resolv.conf</i></b> - the resolve file; contains instructions that state the default search domain(s) that are used to complete a received query name into a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) when no domain suffix is provide.<br>Also contains a list of nameserver IP addresses for hostname resolution (DNS servers);</li>
    <li><b><i>/tmp/resolv.conf.auto</i></b> - alternative resolve file, used for public hostname resolutions. The path to this file can be changed from this section.</li>
</ul>

Template:Networking rutos manual fw disclosure

Summary

The DNS page is used to to set up how the device utilizes its own and other DNS servers.

This manual page provides an overview of the DNS windows in {{{name}}} devices.

If you're having trouble finding this page or some of the parameters described here on your device's WebUI, you should turn on "Advanced WebUI" mode. You can do that by clicking the "Advanced" button, located at the top of the WebUI.

General Settings

The General Settings section is used to set up the main DNS parameters. Refer to the table below for information on each configuration field.

Field Value Description
Log queries off | on; default: off When enabled, write received DNS requests to syslog.
DNS forwardings string; default: none List of DNS servers to forward requests to.
Rebind protection off | on; default: on Discards upstream RFC1918 responses. When enabled, the device will not resolve domain names for internal hosts.
Local Service Only off | on; default: off Limit DNS service to subnets and interfaces on which this device is serving as a DNS server.
Listen Interfaces network interface(s); default: none Limits listening for DNS queries to interfaces specified in this field and loopback. Leave empty to listen on all interfaces.
Exclude Interfaces network interface(s); default: none Prevents listening for DNS queries on interfaces specified in this field. Leave empty to listen on all interfaces.

Advanced Settings

The Advanced Settings section is used to set up some of the more specific DNS parameters. Refer to the table below for information on each configuration field.

Field Value Description
Filter private off | on; default: on Do not forward reverse lookups for local networks.
Localise queries off | on; default: on Localise hostname depending on the requesting subnet if multiple IPs are available.
Additional servers file text file; default: none Uploads an additional DNS servers file. This file may contain lines like 'server=/domain/1.2.3.4' or 'server=1.2.3.4' for domain-specific or full upstream DNS servers.
Size of DNS query cache integer [0..10000]; default: none Number of cached DNS entries. Set to 0 for no caching.
