								Each counter has a label `zone` which is the zonename used for the request/response,
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								and a label `qtype` which old the query type.
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								The `response_rcode_count_total` has an extra label `rcode` which holds the rcode
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								of the response.

								If monitoring is enabled queries that do not enter the middleware chain are exported

								under the fake domain "dropped" (without a closing dot).
