lookup zones on all matching interfaces). If the lookup failed on

per-interface domains are exclusively routed to the matching
interfaces.</para>
<para>Routing of lookups may be influenced by configuring per-interface domain names and other settings. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.network</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> and
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>resolvectl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> for details. The
following query routing logic applies for unicast DNS traffic:</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para>If a name to look up matches (that is: is equal to or has as suffix) any of the configured search
or route-only domains of any link (or the globally configured DNS settings), the "best matching"
search/route-only domain is determined: the matching one with the most labels. The query is then sent to all DNS
servers of any links or the globally configured DNS servers associated with this "best matching"
search/route-only domain. (Note that more than one link might have this same "best matching" search/route-only
domain configured, in which case the query is sent to all of them in parallel).</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>If a query does not match any configured search/route-only domain (neither per-link nor global),
it is sent to all DNS servers that are configured on links with the "DNS default route" option set, as well as
the globally configured DNS server.</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>If there is no link configured as "DNS default route" and no global DNS server configured, the
compiled-in fallback DNS server is used.</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>Otherwise the query is failed as no suitable DNS servers could be determined.</para></listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>The "DNS default route" option is a boolean setting configureable with <command>resolvectl</command> or in
<filename>.network</filename> files. If not set, it is implicitly determined based on the configured DNS domains
for a link: if there's any route-only domain (not matching <literal>~.</literal>) it defaults to false, otherwise
to true.</para>
<para>Effectively this means: in order to preferably route all DNS queries not explicitly matched by
search/route-only domain configuration to a specific link, configure a <literal>~.</literal> route-only domain on
it. This will ensure that other links will not be considered for the queries (unless they too carry such a
route-only domain). In order to route all such DNS queries to a specific link only in case no other link is
preferable, then set the "DNS default route" option for the link to true, and do not configure a
<literal>~.</literal> route-only domain on it. Finally, in order to ensure that a specific link never receives any
DNS traffic not matching any of its configured search/route-only domains, set the "DNS default route" option for it
to false.</para>
