      Hi all,

      I'm looking to set a wildcard DNS A record (and AAAA actually).  I found this:

      https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Wildcard_Records_in_DNS_Forwarder/Resolver

      For DNS Resolver (aka unbound), it says it can be done "using its advanced options".  In the GUI, under Services > DNS Resolver > Advanced Settings, I don't see anywhere to type in a multi-line string as the docs suggest.  Are those docs out of date?  Where in fact can this be done?

      Thanks,

      Sean

        Click the display custom options button near bottom of the resolver web ui..  Just on the General setting tab, not the advanced tab.. Some wording on the doc could prob be updated - put in some pictures even..

          Ah, thanks!  I looked everywhere under 'advanced settings' per the doc, but didn't think to poke around the other tab. :)
