     <title>Description</title>

     <para><command>systemd-resolved</command> is a system service that provides network name resolution to local
     applications. It implements a caching and validating DNS/DNSSEC stub resolver, as well as an LLMNR resolver and
     responder. Local applications may submit network name resolution requests via three interfaces:</para>

     <itemizedlist>
       <listitem><para>The native, fully-featured API <command>systemd-resolved</command> exposes on the bus. See the
       <ulink url="https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/resolved">API Documentation</ulink> for
       details. Usage of this API is generally recommended to clients as it is asynchronous and fully featured (for
       example, properly returns DNSSEC validation status and interface scope for addresses as necessary for supporting
       link-local networking).</para></listitem>

       <listitem><para>The glibc
       <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>getaddrinfo</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> API as defined
       by <ulink url="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3493">RFC3493</ulink> and its related resolver functions,
       including <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>gethostbyname</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. This
       API is widely supported, including beyond the Linux platform. In its current form it does not expose DNSSEC
       validation status information however, and is synchronous only. This API is backed by the glibc Name Service
       Switch (<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>nss</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>). Usage of the
       glibc NSS module <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nss-resolve</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
       is required in order to allow glibc's NSS resolver functions to resolve host names via
       <command>systemd-resolved</command>.</para></listitem>

       <listitem><para>Additionally, <command>systemd-resolved</command> provides a local DNS stub listener on IP
       address 127.0.0.53 on the local loopback interface. Programs issuing DNS requests directly, bypassing any local
       API may be directed to this stub, in order to connect them to <command>systemd-resolved</command>. Note however
       that it is strongly recommended that local programs use the glibc NSS or bus APIs instead (as described above),
       as various network resolution concepts (such as link-local addressing, or LLMNR Unicode domains) cannot be mapped
       to the unicast DNS protocol.</para></listitem>
     </itemizedlist>

     <para>The DNS servers contacted are determined from the global settings in
     <filename>/etc/systemd/resolved.conf</filename>, the per-link static settings in
     <filename>/etc/systemd/network/*.network</filename> files, the per-link dynamic settings received over DHCP and any
     DNS server information made available by other system services. See
     <citerefentry><refentrytitle>resolved.conf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> and
     <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.network</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> for details
     about systemd's own configuration files for DNS servers. To improve compatibility,
     <filename>/etc/resolv.conf</filename> is read in order to discover configured system DNS servers, but only if it is
     not a symlink to <filename>/run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf</filename> or
     <filename>/run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf</filename> (see below).</para>

     <para><command>systemd-resolved</command> synthesizes DNS resource records (RRs) for the following cases:</para>

     <itemizedlist>
       <listitem><para>The local, configured hostname is resolved to
       all locally configured IP addresses ordered by their scope, or
       — if none are configured — the IPv4 address 127.0.0.2 (which
       is on the local loopback) and the IPv6 address ::1 (which is the
       local host).</para></listitem>

       <listitem><para>The hostnames <literal>localhost</literal> and
       <literal>localhost.localdomain</literal> (as well as any hostname
       ending in <literal>.localhost</literal> or <literal>.localhost.localdomain</literal>)
       are resolved to the IP addresses 127.0.0.1 and ::1.</para></listitem>

       <listitem><para>The hostname <literal>_gateway</literal> is
       resolved to all current default routing gateway addresses,
       ordered by their metric. This assigns a stable hostname to the
       current gateway, useful for referencing it independently of the
       current network configuration state.</para></listitem>

       <listitem><para>The mappings defined in <filename>/etc/hosts</filename> are resolved
       to their configured addresses and back, but they will not affect lookups for
       non-address types (like MX).</para></listitem>
     </itemizedlist>

     <para>Lookup requests are routed to the available DNS servers
     and LLMNR interfaces according to the following rules:</para>

     <itemizedlist>
       <listitem><para>Lookups for the special hostname
       <literal>localhost</literal> are never routed to the
       network. (A few other, special domains are handled the same way.)</para></listitem>

       <listitem><para>Single-label names are routed to all local
       interfaces capable of IP multicasting, using the LLMNR
       protocol. Lookups for IPv4 addresses are only sent via LLMNR on
       IPv4, and lookups for IPv6 addresses are only sent via LLMNR on
       IPv6. Lookups for the locally configured host name and the
       <literal>_gateway</literal> host name are never routed to
       LLMNR.</para></listitem>

       <listitem><para>Multi-label names are routed to all local
       interfaces that have a DNS server configured, plus the globally
       configured DNS server if there is one. Address lookups from the
       link-local address range are never routed to
       DNS.</para></listitem>
     </itemizedlist>

     <para>If lookups are routed to multiple interfaces, the first
     successful response is returned (thus effectively merging the
     lookup zones on all matching interfaces). If the lookup failed on
     all interfaces, the last failing response is returned.</para>

     <para>Routing of lookups may be influenced by configuring
     per-interface domain names. See
     <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.network</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
     for details. Lookups for a hostname ending in one of the
     per-interface domains are exclusively routed to the matching
     interfaces.</para>

	<listitem><para><command>systemd-resolved</command> maintains the

	containing information about all known DNS servers. Note the file format's limitations: it does not know a
	concept of per-interface DNS servers and hence only contains system-wide DNS server definitions. Note that
	<filename>/run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf</filename> should not be used directly by applications, but only
	through a symlink from <filename>/etc/resolv.conf</filename>. If this mode of operation is used local clients
