config.md

Configuration format

Aardvark-dns will read configuration files from a given directory.

Inside this directory there should be at least one config file. The name of the file equals the network name.

First line

The first line in the config must contain a comma separated list of listening ips for this network, usually the bridge ips. At least one ip must be given. Note: An optional second column of comma delimited domain name servers can be used at the network level. All containers on that network will inherit all the specified name servers instead of using the host's resolver.

[comma seperated ip4,ipv6 list][(optional)[space][comma seperated DNS servers]]

Container entries

All following lines must contain the dns entries in this format:

[containerID][space][comma sparated ipv4 list][space][comma separated ipv6 list][space][comma separated dns names][(optional)[space][comma seperated DNS servers]]

Aardvark-dns will reload all config files when receiving a SIGHUB signal.
