DESCRIPTION

The plugin can operate in one of four modes named "dns", "edns", "both", and "best", which can be selected by using the mode name as a resource name in the zonefile, as shown in the example above. The default mode is "best". The modes operate as follows:

dns

In the "dns" mode, the address in the response is always the source IP address of the request as seen by gdnsd. Note that this is generally the public address of a central cache/resolver server rather than the end-user client itself.

edns

In the "edns" mode, the address in the response is the address sent by the client in the "edns-client-subnet" option. If the client did not send such an option, the IPv4 address 0.0.0.0 is returned.

both

In the "both" mode, both of the above results are returned in the same response, but there is no artificial 0.0.0.0 added if no "edns-client-subnet" option was available.

best

In the "best" (default) mode, if the "edns-client-subnet" option was specified its data is returned as in the "edns" case, otherwise the source IP address is returned as in the "dns" case.
