Just getting started running unbound (and possibly Diversion) on my AX86U, 386.4 RMerlin code. Installed via amtm and seems to be working OK, but I have questions about what I am seeing, and I hope someone can help a new user
1. In the dnsmasq and unbound logs, I see a fairly high rate of queries for names on my local lan. The A queries are answered by dnsmasq as expected, but the AAAA queries seem to be forwarded from dnsmasq to unbound and upwards to the root servers, getting an (expected) NXDOMAIN reply. My understanding was that dnsmasq would not forward queries to the local lan devices? Is that behavior different or expected for these IPv6 address queries? Is there a setting or config in dnsmasq to prevent this?
2. nslookups to local lan devices only show IPv4 address, not IPv6. Is that expected or related to #1 above?
3. unbound cache hit rates are kind of low, around 58%, is that also an artifact of this "extra" local AAAA query traffic?
4. Is there any definitive guidance about how to set the basic router GUI DNS settings for unbound? I have read MANY postings here, but still wonder if I have something set wrong to cause this. IPv6 DNS server? WAN DNS server? LAN DHCP DNS? I have tried to follow all the threads, and also thought many of these are not relevant once unbound takes control.
5. Is there a description of the data flows for DNS requests when
