Hi Forum,
I have a basic (for me) DNS question I hope someone can clarify.
We're running EFA-3.0.2.6 with DNS Recursion enabled and everything works fine.
The contents of /etc/resolv.conf are:
nameserver 127.0.0.1
The result of running nslookup on the server indicates the query is resolved by the local unbound process
Server: 127.0.0.1
Address: 127.0.0.1#53
There are no DNS servers configured in the network config files and the EFA IP Settings setup specifies
5) Primary DNS : forward-addr:
6) Secondary DNS : forward-addr:
So my question is how does the unbound server resolve a DNS request? I can't find any forwarding DNS servers in the unbound config file or anywhere else for that matter. In fact when I add a forwarder to the unbound config files it breaks recursion and we receive URIBL_BLOCKED errors.
Without forwarders specified is unbound resolving each new request from the root DNS servers and then caching it?
Any clues would be appreciated.
Which DNS servers are used when DNS Recursion is enabled?
