>From the man page:
ip-ratelimit-factor: <number>
Set the amount of queries to rate limit when the limit is
exceeded.
If set to 0, all queries are dropped for addresses where
the limit
is exceeded. If set to another value, 1 in that number is
allowed
through to complete. Default is 10, allowing 1/10 traffic
to flow
normally. This can make ordinary queries complete (if
repeatedly
queried for), and enter the cache, whilst also mitigating
the traf‐
fic flow by the factor given.
I interpret this as setting "ip-ratelimit-factor: 1" should allow all
queries (1/1,
per man-text above) to flow through. Although that doesn't seem to be
the case.
Instead, it looks more like value 0, when everything exceeding is just
dropped.
What value should I set to allow all exceeding queries to be let through?
(this is the behavior of unbound-1.8.2)
