unbound(8)

NAME

unbound - Unbound DNS validating resolver 1.4.5.

SYNOPSIS

unbound [-h] [-d] [-v] [-c cfgfile]

DESCRIPTION

Unbound is an implementation of a DNS resolver, that does caching and DNSSEC validation.

The available options are:

-h  Show the version and commandline option help.

-c cfgfile
    Set the config file with settings for unbound to read instead of reading the file at the default location, /var/unbound/etc/unbound.conf. The syntax is described in unbound.conf(5).

-d  Debug flag, do not fork into the background, but stay attached to the console. This flag will also delay writing to the logfile until the thread-spawn time. So that most config and setup errors appear on stderr.

-v  Increase verbosity. If given multiple times, more information is logged. This is in addition to the verbosity (if any) from the config file.
