coredns - pluggable DNS nameserver optimized for service discovery and
flexibility.
coredns [-conf FILE] [-dns.port PORT} [OPTION]...
CoreDNS is a DNS server that chains plugins. Each plugin handles a DNS feature,
like rewriting queries, kubernetes service discovery or just exporting
metrics. There are many other plugins, each described on
https://coredns.io/plugins ⟨https://coredns.io/plugins⟩ and
their respective manual pages. Plugins not bundled by default in CoreDNS are
listed on https://coredns.io/explugins
⟨https://coredns.io/explugins⟩.
When started without options CoreDNS will look for a file named
Corefile in the current directory, if found, it will parse its
contents and start up accordingly. If no Corefile is found it will
start with the whoami plugin (coredns-whoami(7)) and start listening
on port 53 (unless overridden with -dns.port).
Available options:
- -conf FILE
- specify Corefile to load, if not given CoreDNS will look for a
Corefile in the current directory.
- -dns.port PORT or -p PORT
- override default port (53) to listen on.
- -pidfile FILE
- write PID to FILE.
- -plugins
- list all plugins and quit.
- -quiet
- don't print any version and port information on startup.
- -version
- show version and quit.
