127.0.0.1
Really, installing Unbound is piece of cake both on Windows and Linux.
- 0cf8612b2e1e 3y agoMaybe for a network expert. I briefly tried to setup unbound and immediately got blocked by the installation documentation which assumed too much background info. I quit after I managed to break my internet. In the event of a failure, I would struggle to troubleshoot things. Probably asking too much, but I want to ‘apt install unbound-quickstart’ and know sane defaults are configured. If anything goes wrong, I can delete a single config file or uninstall the package to go back to system defaults.
- justsomehnguy 3y ago> Maybe for a network expert I'm literally just did this: dnf install unbound systemctl enable --now unbound nmtui (because I'm lazy) to point DNS to 127.0.0.1 After reboot (again I'm lazy) I got: $ dig news.ycombinator.com ; <<>> DiG 9.16.23-RH <<>> news.ycombinator.com ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 29106 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1 ;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION: ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 1232 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;news.ycombinator.com.

You don't need 'quickstart' for this On Windows it's the same - download package, install it, configure 127.0.0.1 as primary DNS
