Setup and manage a [Dnsmasq](http://thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/doc.html) DNS server. This allows you to manipulate DNS requests. For example, you can have your Home Assistant domain resolve with an internal address inside your network.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"defaults": ["8.8.8.8", "8.8.4.4"],
|
|
"forwards": [
|
|
{"domain": "mystuff.local", "server": "192.168.1.40"}
|
|
],
|
|
"hosts": [
|
|
{"host": "home.mydomain.io", "ip": "192.168.1.10"}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **defaults** (*Required*): A list of DNS servers to forward default requests to.
|
|
- **forwards** (*Optional*): A list of domains that will forward to a specific server.
|
|
- **hosts** (*Optional*): A list of hosts to resolve statically.
