\fItls\fP - allows you to configure the server certificates for the TLS and gRPC servers.

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
 | 
						|
.PP
 | 
						|
CoreDNS supports queries that are encrypted using TLS (DNS over Transport Layer Security, RFC 7858)
 | 
						|
or are using gRPC (https://grpc.io/
 | 
						|
\[la]https://grpc.io/\[ra], not an IETF standard). Normally DNS traffic isn't encrypted at
 | 
						|
all (DNSSEC only signs resource records).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.PP
 | 
						|
The \fItls\fP "plugin" allows you to configure the cryptographic keys that are needed for both
 | 
						|
DNS-over-TLS and DNS-over-gRPC. If the \fItls\fP plugin is omitted, then no encryption takes place.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.PP
 | 
						|
The gRPC protobuffer is defined in \fB\fCpb/dns.proto\fR. It defines the proto as a simple wrapper for the
 | 
						|
wire data of a DNS message.

Parameter CA is optional. If not set, system CAs can be used to verify the client certificate
 |

If client_auth option is specified, it controls the client authentication policy.
 | 
						|
The option value corresponds to the ClientAuthType values of the Go tls package
 | 
						|
\[la]https://golang.org/pkg/crypto/tls/#ClientAuthType\[ra]: NoClientCert, RequestClientCert, RequireAnyClientCert, VerifyClientCertIfGiven, and RequireAndVerifyClientCert, respectively.
 | 
						|
The default is "nocert".  Note that it makes no sense to specify parameter CA unless this option is
 | 
						|
set to verify_if_given or require_and_verify.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.SH "EXAMPLES"
 | 
						|
.PP
 | 
						|
Start a DNS-over-TLS server that picks up incoming DNS-over-TLS queries on port 5553 and uses the
 | 
						|
nameservers defined in \fB\fC/etc/resolv.conf\fR to resolve the query. This proxy path uses plain old DNS.
 | 
						|

						|

Start a DNS-over-gRPC server that is similar to the previous example, but using DNS-over-gRPC for
 | 
						|
incoming queries.

Only Knot DNS' \fB\fCkdig\fR supports DNS-over-TLS queries, no command line client supports gRPC making
 | 
						|
debugging these transports harder than it should be.
