Local DNS records

Network → Local DNS → Records of the local DNS (GET|POST /api/v1/dns-records, DELETE /api/v1/dns-records/{id}, administrators) holds names given by hand: A, AAAA, CNAME and TXT, 2,000 at most. They are answered before anything else (the lists, the categories and the forward zones included), with a TTL of 5 minutes. *.lab.maison.lan covers every name under lab.maison.lan (not lab.maison.lan itself); a name of its own wins over a wildcard. A name with a CNAME has no other record; the CNAME is followed through the local records, the names of the network, then the resolver of its local zone when the target belongs to one (conditional forwarding), else the upstream servers (8 hops at most, a loop stops), and the answer holds the whole chain. A name asked with a type it has no record of gets an empty answer (NODATA). The records are in the backups.
