      @lohphat log might not catch the failure.. Depending on what the failure is - getting back a nx isn't a failure, etc.

      What specific fqdn did not resolve - what did you get back from unbound, was it refused was it nx, was it a timeout?

      Saying dns didn't work is like telling the mechanic your car is broke. Without details - have no clue to what is wrong or could be wrong.

      You can for sure up the log level - also you can have it log queries and replies with

      log-queries: yes
      log-replies: yes

      In the option box, etc.

      But some actual details what you specific asked for, what was the response? And then doing a dig +trace is prob going to tell you more of what is failing then in the log..

        That's the problem, I don't have a specific FQDN but I have cases where YT thumbnails don't load in a browser on my PC or iPad or on my Roku on my TV -- other similar sites which use distributed content like linkedin.com also fail at the same time. Since the content is embedded, getting the FQDN is more of a challenge.

        You can for sure up the log level - also you can have it log queries and replies with

        log-queries: yes
        log-replies: yes

        Thanks! Will try this.

        But some actual details what you specific asked for, what was the response? And then doing a dig +trace is prob going to tell you more of what is failing then in the log..

        Once I can do that I will.

          Here we go!

          One second duckduckgo.com is resolved and the SAME second it's not.

            Even more frustrating:

            But when I do a DNS query in pfsense it resolves while my client is getting can't resolve errors. Presumably due to negative caching.

                @lohphat you understand A and AAAA are not the same thing right.

                So you need to figureout why your getting servfail. for duckduckgo.com

                What does the trace look like?

                  @johnpoz Yes I know the difference between A and AAAA.

                  The dig trace is included in last message.

                    e.g. YT is now failing but only on some FQDNs -- enough to break the UI and prevent thumbnails from loading.

                      So figure out why servfail - you sure your dns not being intercepted and you failing dnssec?

                      I am having zero issues resolving that, and your trace for example looks fine.

                      I would sniff to find out why our having issues.. So you query that directly and you get back servfail - what does unbound show for its cache that - ask it how it would look it up, etc..

                        Well, this failure mode is intermittent -- it hits then resolves, then his again later, rinse, repeat. It doesn't happen in DNS Forward mode. So I'm guessing whatever it is, is happening in the local cache.

                        The failure mode affects different devices on different internal networks which are of different architectures: Win11, iPad OS, Roku, Android.

                        The behavior started after the 22.05 update almost immediately. No other changes other than the base image were made.

                        The following advanced options are set (and were set in 22.01):

                        • Prefetch DNS Key Support
                        • Harden DNSSEC Data
                        • Keep Probing
                        • Experimental Bit 0x20 Support

                        When things start failing again, I'll post the deeper query results.

                            @lohphat try disabling the experimental bit 0x20 support, and also try enabling the "serve expired" option which helps a ton with cdn dns performance.

                              My new question is why the alias being resolved used while the test rule I use the alias in, isn't being used at all.

                              ??

                              The Alias is defined.
                              So it get resolved regularly.
                              An alias can be used not only in a firewall rule, but also some where else.
                              Or even not used at all : as long as it is defined, it get resolved.

                                DNS forwarding and DNSSEC enabled:

                                That is never a good idea, if your going to forward where you forward either does dnssec or it doesn't you asking for it does nothing - other than problematic.

                                Interesting side-effect if DNSSEC is disabled, I get a warning if I try to change the Advanced Settings:

                                The following input errors were detected:

    Harden DNSSEC Data option can only be enabled if DNSSEC support is enabled.

                                Another example of where info text could be clearer when there are inter-dependencies of settings. I want DNSSEC, but it's not needed if you're forwarding, but then the setting on another page is dependent on it. I didn't get a warning that it was set when I disabled DNSSEC on the main page. Confusing.

                                Also: The setting default should be included in each setting text so that as you're tweaking over time, knowing the default setting is helpful to return settings to original.

                                  @gertjan But that behavior is not obvious.

                                  Getting DNS lookup failures in the log took me a while to trace where I had those references. I had long forgotten the alias I had created to test a f/w rule for DNS blocking.

                                    True.
                                    But changing a setting on a first page that automatically change (disables) a setting on a second page is more confusing.
                                    All this is IMHO of course.

                                    Right now, you are hinted to disable first the extra 'special' DNSSEC settings and the second page, and then, at last; disable DNSSEC all together on the main page.

                                    And strange .... DNSSEC works so well for me the last several years already.
                                    I'm using DNSSEC, as pfSense is setup out of the box to use it.
                                    Because a good 'flat' classic Internet connection should not intervene with my outgoing traffic.
                                    If this wasn't the case, I would change ISP ASAP.

                                    These :

                                    adb91ac1-1ee6-451f-995c-8d63e86dd06b-image.png

                                    I've checked years ago.
                                    Never had the need to remove them (which means I rarely visit sites with DNSSEC issues, I guess)

                                      @gertjan After all the testing the setting which has seemed to solve my problem is to enable "Serve Expired".

                                      That was not enabled when I was running pre 22.05 so I wonder what changed between 22.01 and 22.05 which changed the behavior in my environment.

                                      So far, after re-enabling DNSSEC and the Experimental 0x 20 support, things are working again -- just "Serve Expired" seems to have been the issue.

                                        @lohphat I would turn on prefetch as well.

                                        You also might want to set a min ttl. You mention seems to be problem with cdn stuff - possible the ttl is so freaking small that if your having time problems with resolving - you could run into timeouts..

                                        I looked at one example you gave - 300 seconds..

                                          Hi, +1 here on the issue with erratic behaviour on DNS lookups since 22.05 update.

                                          I'm going to read the full chain here, but lots of similarities in the bits I've skim-read.

                                          Lots of these entries in the logs for unbound

                                          Jul 13 21:43:18 unbound 982 [982:1] error: recvfrom 22 failed: Protocol not available

                                          I'm using Cloudflare DNS servers, not allowing my WAN connections DHCP settings to flow through and have things set to "use remote, ignore local". I don't have these DNS servers set in my DHCP settings.

                                          DNS Forwarder is inactive, DNS Resolver is active.

                                            Over the last few days the only change I've made in addition to "Serve Expired" and add a minimum TTL of 900 sec (setting the help text doesn't specify units, but I have a long-standing complaint on the lack of min detail in setting help text). I also turned off "Use Experimental 0x 20" for DNS spoofing; this too over several days proved unstable (and a change between 22.01 to 22.05 as it was working fine before).

                                            So yes, something has significantly changed in unbound in the last release.
