Devices

Enable DNSSEC validation and caching

service dns forwarding dnssec check-unsigned
Devices

Check if unsigned replies are legitimate

This entails possible extra queries even for the majority of DNS zones which are not, at the moment, signed.

This does not protect against an attacker forging unsigned replies for signed DNS zones, but it is fast.

Copy the DNSSEC Authenticated Data bit from upstream servers to downstream clients

This is an alternative to having dnsmasq validate DNSSEC, but it depends on the security of the network between dnsmasq and the upstream servers, and the trustworthiness of the upstream servers. Note that caching the Authenticated Data bit correctly in all cases is not technically possible.

service dns proxy
Devices

DNS proxy service configuration options

Required:

service dns proxy server-name <id>

service dns proxy balancing <id>
Devices

Load balancing algorithms for chosen servers

The DNS proxy queries all the servers given by the source lists. Once populated, servers are sorted from quickest to lowest, and that order will be used for performing the load balancing. Each time a query is made to a server, the time it takes is used to adjust how fast the proxy thinks the server is, using an exponentially weighted average. If the new calculated time happens to be slower than a randomly chosen candidate from the list of servers, then the entries are swapped. When this operation is applied over time, every server will get compared to all the others and the list is progressively kept sorted. Notice that when source lists are used, the servers are placed around the world. If “ph” strategy is chosen, very probably some queries will end-up using slower servers - that is why “p2” is probably the best strategy to use (and therefore the best). Have a look at server response times before choosing the strategy.

Values:
  • first – Always pick the fastest server in the list

  • p2 – Randomly choose between the top 2 fastest servers

  • ph – Randomly choose between the top fastest half of all servers

  • random – Just pick any random server from the list

However, if the server has no acceptable algorithm from the one the client asks for, it will just show a warning and choose the proper one.

Remote lists of available servers

Remote lists are a set of servers that are available for querying DNS records. The lists themselves contain all the required information for a client to connect to a server by simply using a known name. For example, to use Cloudflare as the DNS provider by using a list, it would be as simple as defining “service dns proxy server-name cloudflare”. That setting will automatically populate the DNS list for looking for the “cloudflare” provider data. Some companies publish their own lists with their servers. On the other hand, some projects decide to publish lists with generally available servers. An example is DNSCrypt:
