Debug Environment

$ export SDNS_DEBUGNS=true && export SDNS_PPROF=true && ./sdns

SDNS_DEBUGNS enviroment useful when you want to check authoritive servers RTT times. Usage: send HINFO query for zones with chaos class.

Example Output:

$ dig chaos hinfo example.com

Configuration (v1.1.0)

Key Desc
version Config version
blocklists List of remote blocklists address list. All lists will be download to blocklist folder.

binddoh Address to bind to for the DNS-over-HTTPS server. Default :8053
tlscertificate TLS certificate file path
tlsprivatekey TLS private key file path
outboundips Outbound ipv4 addresses, if you set multiple, sdns can use random outbound ipv4 address by request based
outboundip6s Outbound ipv6 addresses, if you set multiple, sdns can use random outbound ipv6 address by request based
rootservers DNS Root IPv4 servers
root6servers DNS Root IPv6 servers
rootkeys Trusted anchors for DNSSEC

maxdepth Maximum iteration depth for a query Default: 30
ratelimit Query based ratelimit per second, 0 for disabled. Default: 0
clientratelimit Client ip address based ratelimit per minute, 0 for disable. if client support edns cookie no limit. Default: 0
blocklist Manual blocklist entries
whitelist Manual whitelist entries
cookiesecret DNS cookie secret (RFC 7873), if no cookiesecret set, it will be generate automatically
nsid DNS server identifier (RFC 5001), it's useful while operating multiple sdns. left blank for disabled
chaos Enable to answer version.server, version.bind, hostname.bind and id.server chaos txt queries.
qname_min_level Qname minimize level.If higher, it can be more complex and impact the response performance. If set 0, qname min will be disable
emptyzones Empty zones return answer for RFC 1918 zones. Please see http://as112.net/ for details.

Plugins Configuration

You can add your own plugins to sdns. The plugin order is very important. The orders of plugins and middlewares will effect each other. Config keys should be string and values can be anything. The plugins will load before cache middleware with their orders.

Plugin interface is very simple. For more information, you can look the example plugin

Example Config

[plugins]
     [plugins.example]
     path = "/myplugindir/exampleplugin.so"
     config = {key_1 = "value_1",intkey = 2,boolkey = true,keyN = "nnn"}
     [plugins.another]
     path = "/myplugindir/anotherplugin.so"

Performance

These benchmarks were run on a server with Intel Xeon E5-2609 v4 cpu and 32GB memory on localhost. DNS-OARC dnsperf (https://www.dns-oarc.net/tools/dnsperf) tool used with 50.000 sample query data.
