[Unbound-users] testing unbound (coming from bind)

[James Starowitz]

Ive been using this for a couple days  as simple as it is, it works pretty good.
The sleep is required because the stop issues an "ok" but the program is still running, (cant bind port)
Occasionally we see an ssl error, on the load_cache line, but it does load all the records "~ok~" and works.


unbound-control dump_cache > /root/dump_cache.data;
unbound-control stop;
sleep 2;
unbound-control start;
cat /root/dump_cache.data | unbound-control load_cache;


is this the timeout for non existant domains? Is that what lame means?

        # the time to live (TTL) value for cached roundtrip times, lameness and
        # EDNS version information for hosts. In seconds.
        # infra-host-ttl: 900
Or does this type of ttl not exist at this time?


I am also still wondering about the possablity for a non recursive (cache/local) only acl.

pfSense has such a thing.

In theory, it should be possible, I suppose. pfSense's doesn't work reliably. Do you find yourself restarting production unbound instances often enough that dumping the cache causes operational issues?
