upstream:
# these external DNS resolvers will be used. Blocky picks 2 random resolvers from the list for each query
# format for resolver: [net:]host:[port][/path]. net could be empty (default, shortcut for tcp+udp), tcp+udp, tcp, udp, tcp-tls or https (DoH). If port is empty, default port will be used (53 for udp and tcp, 853 for tcp-tls, 443 for https (Doh))
# this configuration is mandatory, please define at least one external DNS resolver
default:
# example for tcp+udp IPv4 server (https://digitalcourage.de/)
#- 5.9.164.112
# Cloudflare
- 1.1.1.1
# example for DNS-over-TLS server (DoT)
#- tcp-tls:fdns1.dismail.de:853
# example for DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH)
#- https://dns.digitale-gesellschaft.ch/dns-query
# optional: use client name (with wildcard support: * - sequence of any characters, [0-9] - range)
# or single ip address / client subnet as CIDR notation
#laptop*:
#- 123.123.123.123
# optional: timeout to query the upstream resolver. Default: 2s
#upstreamTimeout: 2s
# optional: If true, blocky will fail to start unless at least one upstream server per group is reachable. Default: false
#startVerifyUpstream: true
# optional: Determines how blocky will create outgoing connections. This impacts both upstreams, and lists.
# accepted: dual, v4, v6
# default: dual
#connectIPVersion: dual
# optional: custom IP address(es) for domain name (with all sub-domains). Multiple addresses must be separated by a comma
# example: query "printer.lan" or "my.printer.lan" will return 192.168.178.3
#customDNS:
#customTTL: 1h
# optional: if true (default), return empty result for unmapped query types (for example TXT, MX or AAAA if only IPv4 address is defined).
# if false, queries with unmapped types will be forwarded to the upstream resolver
#filterUnmappedTypes: true
# optional: replace domain in the query with other domain before resolver lookup in the mapping
# optional: definition, which DNS resolver(s) should be used for queries to the domain (with all sub-domains). Multiple resolvers must be separated by a comma
# Example: Query client.fritz.box will ask DNS server 192.168.178.1. This is necessary for local network, to resolve clients by host name
#conditional:
# optional: if false (default), return empty result if after rewrite, the mapped resolver returned an empty answer. If true, the original query will be sent to the upstream resolver
# Example: The query "blog.example.com" will be rewritten to "blog.fritz.box" and also redirected to the resolver at 192.168.178.1. If not found and if was set to , the original query "blog.example.com" will be sent upstream.
# Usage: One usecase when having split DNS for internal and external (internet facing) users, but not all subdomains are listed in the internal domain.
#fallbackUpstream: false
# optional: replace domain in the query with other domain before resolver lookup in the mapping
#rewrite:
#example.com: fritz.box
#mapping:
#fritz.box: 192.168.178.1
#lan.net: 192.168.178.1,192.168.178.2
# optional: use black and white lists to block queries (for example ads, trackers, adult pages etc.)
blocking:
# definition of blacklist groups. Can be external link (http/https) or local file
# definition of whitelist groups. Attention: if the same group has black and whitelists, whitelists will be used to disable particular blacklist entries. If a group has only whitelist entries -> this means only domains from this list are allowed, all other domains will be blocked
whiteLists:
ads:
- whitelist.txt
- |
# inline definition with YAML literal block scalar style
# hosts format
whitelistdomain.com
# this is a regex
/^banners?[_.-]/
# definition: which groups should be applied for which client
clientGroupsBlock:
# default will be used, if no special definition for a client name exists
default:
- ads
- special
# use client name (with wildcard support: * - sequence of any characters, [0-9] - range)
# or single ip address / client subnet as CIDR notation
#laptop*:
#- ads
#192.168.178.1/24:
#- special
# which response will be sent, if query is blocked:
# zeroIp: 0.0.0.0 will be returned (default)
# nxDomain: return NXDOMAIN as return code
# comma separated list of destination IP addresses (for example: 192.100.100.15, 2001:0db8:85a3:08d3:1319:8a2e:0370:7344). Should contain ipv4 and ipv6 to cover all query types. Useful with running web server on this address to display the "blocked" page.
blockType: zeroIp
# optional: TTL for answers to blocked domains
# default: 6h
blockTTL: 1m
# optional: automatically list refresh period (in duration format). Default: 4h.
# Negative value -> deactivate automatically refresh.
# 0 value -> use default
refreshPeriod: 4h
# optional: timeout for list download (each url). Default: 60s. Use large values for big lists or slow internet connections
# if > 0, deletes log files which are older than ... days
#logRetentionDays: 7
# optional: Max attempts to create specific query log writer, default: 3
#creationAttempts: 1
# optional: Time between the creation attempts, default: 2s
#creationCooldown: 2s
# optional: Blocky can synchronize its cache and blocking state between multiple instances through redis.
redis:
# Server address and port
#address: redis:6379
# Password if necessary
#password: passwd
# Database, default: 0
#database: 2
# Connection is required for blocky to start. Default: false
#required: true
# Max connection attempts, default: 3
#connectionAttempts: 10
# Time between the connection attempts, default: 1s
#connectionCooldown: 3s
# optional: DNS listener port(s) and bind ip address(es), default 53 (UDP and TCP). Example: 53, :53, "127.0.0.1:5353,[::1]:5353"
port: 553
# optional: Port(s) and bind ip address(es) for DoT (DNS-over-TLS) listener. Example: 853, 127.0.0.1:853
#tlsPort: 853
# optional: HTTPS listener port(s) and bind ip address(es), default empty = no http listener. If > 0, will be used for prometheus metrics, pprof, REST API, DoH... Example: 443, :443, 127.0.0.1:443
#httpPort: 4000
#httpsPort: 443
# optional: Mininal TLS version that the DoH and DoT server will use
#minTlsServeVersion: 1.3
# if https port > 0: path to cert and key file for SSL encryption. if not set, self-signed certificate will be generated
#certFile: server.crt
#keyFile: server.key
# optional: use this DNS server to resolve blacklist urls and upstream DNS servers. Useful if no DNS resolver is configured and blocky needs to resolve a host name. Format net:IP:port, net must be udp or tcp
#bootstrapDns: tcp+udp:1.1.1.1
filtering:
# optional: drop all queries with following query types. Default: empty
#queryTypes:
#- AAAA
# optional: if path defined, use this file for query resolution (A, AAAA and rDNS). Default: empty
hostsFile:
# optional: Path to hosts file (e.g. /etc/hosts on Linux)
#filePath: /etc/hosts
