Filtering DNS Reverse Proxy

A simple Filtering DNS Reverse Proxy allowing to expose publicly part of some zones (ie lets encrypt certs, domain delegation etc) without leaking private informations without falling into split horizon DNS.

Notes

• Be sure to disable recursion and additional on upstream server, for example on bind:

options {
  // [...]
  recursion no;
  additional-from-auth no;
  additional-from-cache no;
  // [...]
};

Config

Available actions:

• forward: forward the query to a target taken randomly in the given targets list
• refused: deliberately reply with a refused message
• failed: deliberately reply with a fail message

Queries are normlized and canonicalized to lower case and trailing dot. Don't forget the later in patters.
