- artdigital 4y agoI didn’t understand this. What does the local cli do that has similar performance? Does it create a local dns server that relays to upstream?
- happyopossum 4y agoThis was the first google result for NextDNS CLI - https://github.com/nextdns/nextdns https://github.com/nextdns/nextdns looks like it proxies standard DNS traffic to NextDNS via DOH, and does some other fancy stuff including caching, zeroconf discovery, and conditional forwarding. Dang, this looks like a nice option for my home setup - I may give it a try!!
- SparkyMcUnicorn 4y agoI'm running the same setup you are, but the primary DNS servers are still pointing to nextdns rather than being fully local. I'm extremely happy with it, and any latency/speed difference is negligible anyways.
