      The below example will show how to configure Unbound to force LAN clients to use Youtube in Restricted mode. This same process will work with safesearch for Google/Bing/etc.

      Step 1:

      • ping restrict.youtube.com

      • note that ip address

      • should be 216.239.38.120

      Step 2:

      • For Unbound (default DNS resolver): create a host override:

        Your example image shows 216.239.38.12 for the restrict IP address instead of 216.239.38.120.
