final

Default dns server tag.

The first server will be used if empty.

strategy

Default domain strategy for resolving the domain names.

One of prefer_ipv4 prefer_ipv6 ipv4_only ipv6_only.

Take no effect if server.strategy is set.

disable_cache

Disable dns cache.

disable_expire

Disable dns cache expire.

independent_cache

Make each DNS server's cache independent for special purposes. If enabled, will slightly degrade performance.

reverse_mapping

Stores a reverse mapping of IP addresses after responding to a DNS query in order to provide domain names when routing.

Since this process relies on the act of resolving domain names by an application before making a request, it can be problematic in environments such as macOS, where DNS is proxied and cached by the system.

client_subnet

!!! question "Since sing-box 1.9.0"

Append a edns0-subnet OPT extra record with the specified IP prefix to every query by default.

If value is an IP address instead of prefix, /32 or /128 will be appended automatically.

Can be overrides by servers.[].client_subnet or rules.[].client_subnet.
