ruleType
When you want to forward DNS queries for specified domain name to resolvers on your network, specify FORWARD
or DELEGATE
. If a query matches multiple Resolver rules (example.com and www.example.com), outbound DNS queries are routed using the Resolver rule that contains the most specific domain name (www.example.com).
When you have a forwarding rule to forward DNS queries for a domain to your network and you want Resolver to process queries for a subdomain of that domain, specify SYSTEM
.
For example, to forward DNS queries for example.com to resolvers on your network, you create a rule and specify FORWARD
for RuleType
. To then have Resolver process queries for apex.example.com, you create a rule and specify SYSTEM
for RuleType
.
Currently, only Resolver can create rules that have a value of RECURSIVE
for RuleType
.
