Hi,

 

More questions on DoT.

 

Having setup DoT and got it all working, I was under the impression that all
DNS queries would now use TLS over TCP. With that in mind I set:

 

do-udp: no

 

having changed that setting unbound will not answer any queries at all.

 

Either local-data

C:\>dig -x 192.168.1.20

; <<>> DiG 9.14.4 <<>> -x 192.168.1.3

;; global options: +cmd

;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

 

Or external

 

C:\>dig www.microsoft.com

; <<>> DiG 9.14.4 <<>> www.microsoft.com

;; global options: +cmd

;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

 

With UDP enabled there are no problems.

 

So the question is:

 

Why does UDP have to be enabled?

 

How can I be certain that ALL forwarded queries are over TCP if UDP is
enabled?

 

Regards

Ray
