## CoreDNS
|
|
|
|
*coredns* - plugable DNS nameserver optimized for service discovery and flexibility.
|
|
|
|
## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
*coredns* **[-conf FILE]** **[-dns.port PORT}** **[OPTION]**...
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
CoreDNS is a DNS server that chains plugins. Each plugin handles a DNS feature, like rewriting
|
|
queries, kubernetes service discovery or just exporting metrics. There are many other plugins,
|
|
each described on <https://coredns.io/plugins> and there respective manual pages. Plugins not
|
|
bundled by default in CoreDNS are listed on <https://coredns.io/explugins>.
|
|
|
|
When started with no options CoreDNS will look for a file names `Corefile` in the current
|
|
directory, if found it will parse its contents and start up accordingly. If no `Corefile` is found
|
|
it will start with the *whoami* plugin (coredns-whoami(7)) and start listening on port 53 (unless
|
|
overridden with `-dns.port`).
|
|
|
|
Available options:
|
|
|
|
**-conf** **FILE**
|
|
: specify Corefile to load.
|
|
|
|
**-cpu** **CAP**
|
|
: specify maximum CPU capacity in percent.
|
|
|
|
**-dns.port** **PORT**
|
|
: override default port (53) to listen on.
|
|
|
|
**-pidfile** **FILE**
|
|
: write PID to **FILE**.
|
|
|
|
**-plugins**
|
|
: list all plugins and quit.
|
|
|
|
**-quiet**
|
|
: don't print any version and port information on startup.
|
|
|
|
**-version**
|
|
: show version and quit.
