General Discussion / Knot resolver instead of unbound.

« on: January 28, 2020, 09:40:50 am »

Hi guys, unbound is awesome and fast when it cached the website i always go to. But for websites i rarely go or just click on links that i never visit, the response is kinda slow. So i went and look for another alternative and i found a great one. Its knot resolver and it has similar cached speed as unbound but where it shines is the uncached performance. Its so much faster, i know we are talking a few milliseconds, but in real life experience it feels significant. Im wondering if opnsense will ever include it as default dns resolver, just curious if that ever gonna happen. Not trying to bash unbound, i just felt knot resolver could improve the experience.

18.7 Legacy Series / How do i prevent unbound dns flush

« on: December 18, 2018, 09:56:58 am »

Hello everyone, i wanna know if there are workoaround to unbound flushing the dns cache.
My isp provide dynamic ip through pppoe. But it will renew the ip every 48hours. I understand unbound will restart itself when it detects ip change. Is there something i can do for it to keep dns cache intact? Thank you in advance.
