Unbound is a validating, recursive, caching DNS resolver. It is designed to be
|
||
fast and lean and incorporates modern features based on open standards. If you
|
||
have any feedback, we would love to hear from you. Don’t hesitate to
|
||
[create an issue on Github](https://github.com/NLnetLabs/unbound/issues/new)
|
||
or post a message on the [Unbound mailing list](https://lists.nlnetlabs.nl/mailman/listinfo/unbound-users).
|
||
You can lean more about Unbound by reading our
|
||
[documentation](https://nlnetlabs.nl/documentation/unbound/).
|
||
|
||
## Compiling
|
||
|
||
Make sure you have the C toolchain, OpenSSL and its include files, and libexpat
|
||
installed. Unbound can be compiled and installed using:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
./configure && make && make install
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You can use libevent if you want. libevent is useful when using many (10000)
|
||
outgoing ports. By default max 256 ports are opened at the same time and the
|
||
builtin alternative is equally capable and a little faster.
|
||
|
||
Use the `--with-libevent=dir` configure option to compile Unbound with libevent
|
||
support.
|
||
|
||
## Unbound configuration
|
||
|
||
All of Unbound's configuration options are described in the man pages, which
|
||
will be installed and are available on the Unbound
|
||
[documentation page](https://nlnetlabs.nl/documentation/unbound/).
|
||
|
||
An example configuration file is located in
|
||
[doc/example.conf](https://github.com/NLnetLabs/unbound/blob/master/doc/example.conf.in).
