      Hi I'm using the Unbound resolver within pfsense. I'm having an issue with querying soa records for a domain (actually running servers which use soa lookups).

      My unbound resolver has the following:
      Enable DNS resolver
      Listen Port 53
      SSL/TLS certificate
      SSL/TLS Listen Port
      Network Interfaces ALL
      Outgoing Network Interfaces ALL
      Enable Forwarding Mode
      Use SSL/TLS for outgoing DNS Queries to Forwarding Servers

      Forwarding DNS servers are 1.1.1.2 1.0.0.2 9.9.9.9 149.112.112.112

      I use CF as my DNS registrar and have a test domain -- traefik.xxxx.com

      Within LAN (behind pfsense) if I query I get the following:

      #nslookup -type=soa traefik.xxxxx.com 1.1.1.1 
      Server:		1.1.1.1
      Address:	1.1.1.1#53
      
      *** Can't find traefik.xxxxx.com: No answer
      

      However if I'm I'm not behind pfsense (tether off phone for example):

      #nslookup -type=soa traefik.xxxxx.com 1.1.1.1 
      Server:		1.1.1.1
      Address:	1.1.1.1#53
      
      Non-authoritative answer:
      *** Can't find traefik.xxxxx.com: No answer
      
      Authoritative answers can be found from:
      xxxxxx.com
      	origin = connie.ns.cloudflare.com
      	mail addr = dns.cloudflare.com
      	serial = 2035659851
      	refresh = 10000
      	retry = 2400
      	expire = 604800
      	minimum = 3600
      

      So it doesn't seem I'm able to query SOA records likely because I don't have something configured correctly. Any help on this issue would be helpful.
