Configuration Reference
=======================

This page lists all configuration options for dnsdist.

.. note::

  When an IPv6 IP:PORT combination is needed, the bracketed syntax from :rfc:`RFC 3986 <3986#section-3.2.2>` should be used.
  e.g. "[2001:DB8:14::C0FF:FEE]:5300".

Functions and Types
-------------------

Within dnsdist several core object types exist:

* :class:`Server`: generated with :func:`newServer`, represents a downstream server
* :class:`ComboAddress`: represents an IP address and port
* :class:`DNSName`: represents a domain name
* :class:`NetmaskGroup`: represents a group of netmasks
* :class:`QPSLimiter`: implements a QPS-based filter
* :class:`SuffixMatchNode`: represents a group of domain suffixes for rapid testing of membership
* :class:`DNSHeader`: represents the header of a DNS packet
* :class:`ClientState`: sometimes also called Bind or Frontend, represents the addresses and ports dnsdist is listening on

The existence of most of these objects can mostly be ignored, unless you plan to write your own hooks and policies, but it helps to understand an expressions like:

.. code-block:: lua

  getServer(0).order=12         -- set order of server 0 to 12
  getServer(0):addPool("abuse") -- add this server to the abuse pool

The ``.`` means ``order`` is a data member, while the ``:`` means ``addPool`` is a member function.

Global configuration
--------------------

.. function:: includeDirectory(path)

  Include configuration files from ``path``.

  :param str path: The directory to load the configuration from

Listen Sockets
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. function:: addLocal(address[, options])

  .. versionadded:: 1.2.0

  Add to the list of listen addresses.

  :param str address: The IP Address with an optional port to listen on.
                      The default port is 53.
  :param table options: A table with key: value pairs with listen options.

  Options:

  * ``doTCP=true``: bool - Also bind on TCP on ``address``.
  * ``reusePort=false``: bool - Set the ``SO_REUSEPORT`` socket option.
  * ``tcpFastOpenSize=0``: int - Set the TCP Fast Open queue size, enabling TCP Fast Open when available and the value is larger than 0.
  * ``interface=""``: str - Set the network interface to use.
  * ``cpus={}``: table - Set the CPU affinity for this listener thread, asking the scheduler to run it on a single CPU id, or a set of CPU ids. This parameter is only available if the OS provides the pthread_setaffinity_np() function.

  .. code-block:: lua

    addLocal('0.0.0.0:5300', { doTCP=true, reusePort=true })

  This will bind to both UDP and TCP on port 5300 with SO_REUSEPORT enabled.

.. function:: addLocal(address[[[,do_tcp], so_reuseport], tcp_fast_open_qsize])

  .. deprecated:: 1.2.0

  Add to the list of addresses listened on.

  :param str address: The IP Address with an optional port to listen on.
                      The default port is 53.
  :param bool do_tcp: Also bind a TCP port on ``address``, defaults to true.
  :param bool so_reuseport: Use ``SO_REUSEPORT`` if it is available, defaults to false
  :param int tcp_fast_open_qsize: The size of the TCP Fast Open queue. Set to a number
                                  higher than 0 to enable TCP Fast Open when available.
                                  Default is 0.

.. function:: addTLSLocal(address, certFile, keyFile[, options])

  .. versionadded:: 1.3.0

  Listen on the specified address and TCP port for incoming DNS over TLS connections, presenting the specified X.509 certificate.

  :param str address: The IP Address with an optional port to listen on.
                      The default port is 853.
  :param str certFile: The path to a X.509 certificate file in PEM format.
  :param str keyFile: The path to the private key file corresponding to the certificate.
  :param table options: A table with key: value pairs with listen options.

  Options:

  * ``doTCP=true``: bool - Also bind on TCP on ``address``.
  * ``reusePort=false``: bool - Set the ``SO_REUSEPORT`` socket option.
  * ``tcpFastOpenSize=0``: int - Set the TCP Fast Open queue size, enabling TCP Fast Open when available and the value is larger than 0.
  * ``interface=""``: str - Set the network interface to use.
  * ``cpus={}``: table - Set the CPU affinity for this listener thread, asking the scheduler to run it on a single CPU id, or a set of CPU ids. This parameter is only available if the OS provides the pthread_setaffinity_np() function.
  * ``provider``: str - The TLS library to use between GnuTLS and OpenSSL, if they were available and enabled at compilation time.
  * ``ciphers``: str - The TLS ciphers to use. The exact format depends on the provider used.
  * ``numberOfTicketsKeys``: int - The maximum number of tickets keys to keep in memory at the same time, if the provider supports it (GnuTLS doesn't, OpenSSL does). Only one key is marked as active and used to encrypt new tickets while the remaining ones can still be used to decrypt existing tickets after a rotation. Default to 5.
  * ``ticketKeyFile``: str - The path to a file from where TLS tickets keys should be loaded, to support RFC 5077. These keys should be rotated often and never written to persistent storage to preserve forward secrecy. The default is to generate a random key. The OpenSSL provider supports several tickets keys to be able to decrypt existing sessions after the rotation, while the GnuTLS provider only supports one key.
  * ``ticketsKeysRotationDelay``: int - Set the delay before the TLS tickets key is rotated, in seconds. Default is 43200 (12h).
