Description

Resolve DNS queries for clients by looking up names recursively and caching answers. It is useful for local networks, servers, or organizations that want controlled DNS resolution.

DNS resolvers affect privacy, filtering, and network reliability. Restrict who can query it, configure forwarding or validation deliberately, and avoid exposing an open resolver to the internet.
