# How to integrate with `systemd-resolved`
If the system that runs Incus uses `systemd-resolved` to perform DNS lookups, you should notify `resolved` of the domains that Incus can resolve.
To do so, add the DNS servers and domains provided by an Incus network bridge to the `resolved` configuration.
```{note}
The `dns.mode` option (see {ref}`network-bridge-options`) must be set to `managed` or `dynamic` if you want to use this feature.
```
(network-bridge-resolved-configure)=
## Configure resolved
To add a network bridge to the `resolved` configuration, specify the DNS addresses and domains for the respective bridge.
DNS address
: You can use the IPv4 address, the IPv6 address or both.
The address must be specified without the subnet netmask.
To retrieve the IPv4 address for the bridge, use the following command:
incus network get <network_bridge> ipv4.address
To retrieve the IPv6 address for the bridge, use the following command:
incus network get <network_bridge> ipv6.address
DNS domain
: To retrieve the DNS domain name for the bridge, use the following command:
incus network get <network_bridge> dns.domain
If this option is not set, the default domain name is `incus`.
Use the following commands to configure `resolved`:
resolvectl dns <network_bridge> <dns_address>
resolvectl domain <network_bridge> ~<dns_domain>
```{note}
When configuring `resolved` with the DNS domain name, you should prefix the name with `~`.
The `~` tells `resolved` to use the respective name server to look up only this domain.
Depending on which shell you use, you might need to include the DNS domain in quotes to prevent the `~` from being expanded.
```
DNSSEC and DNS over TLS
: The `incus` DNS server does not support DNSSEC or DNS over TLS.
Depending on your resolved configuration the configuration will fail as
the server does not support DNSSEC or DNS over TLS.
To disable both only for the bridge, use the following commands:
resolvectl dnssec <network_bridge> off
resolvectl dnsovertls <network_bridge> off
For example:
resolvectl dns incusbr0 192.0.2.10
resolvectl domain incusbr0 '~incus'
resolvectl dnssec incusbr0 off
resolvectl dnsovertls incusbr0 off
```{note}
Alternatively, you can use the `systemd-resolve` command.
This command has been deprecated in newer releases of `systemd`, but it is still provided for backwards compatibility.
systemd-resolve --interface <network_bridge> --set-domain ~<dns_domain> --set-dns <dns_address> --set-dnsovertls=off --set-dnssec=off
```
The `resolved` configuration persists as long as the bridge exists.
You must repeat the commands after each reboot and after Incus is restarted, or make it persistent as described below.
## Make the `resolved` configuration persistent
You can automate the `systemd-resolved` DNS configuration, so that it is applied on system start and takes effect when Incus creates the network interface.
To do so, create a `systemd` unit file named `/etc/systemd/system/incus-dns-<network_bridge>.service` with the following content:
```
[Unit]
Description=Incus per-link DNS configuration for <network_bridge>
BindsTo=sys-subsystem-net-devices-<network_bridge>.device
After=sys-subsystem-net-devices-<network_bridge>.device
[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/usr/bin/resolvectl dns <network_bridge> <dns_address>
ExecStart=/usr/bin/resolvectl domain <network_bridge> ~<dns_domain>
ExecStart=/usr/bin/resolvectl dnssec <network_bridge> off
ExecStart=/usr/bin/resolvectl dnsovertls <network_bridge> off
ExecStopPost=/usr/bin/resolvectl revert <network_bridge>
RemainAfterExit=yes
[Install]
WantedBy=sys-subsystem-net-devices-<network_bridge>.device
```
Replace `<network_bridge>` in the file name and content with the name of your bridge (for example, `incusbr0`).
Also replace `<dns_address>` and `<dns_domain>` as described in {ref}`network-bridge-resolved-configure`.
Then enable and start the service with the following commands:
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable --now incus-dns-<network_bridge>
If the respective bridge already exists (because Incus is already running), you can use the following command to check that the new service has started:
sudo systemctl status incus-dns-<network_bridge>.service
You should see output similar to the following:
```{terminal}
:input: sudo systemctl status incus-dns-incusbr0.service
● incus-dns-incusbr0.service - Incus per-link DNS configuration for incusbr0
Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/incus-dns-incusbr0.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

Process: 9434 ExecStart=/usr/bin/resolvectl domain incusbr0 ~incus (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
Main PID: 9434 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
```
To check that `resolved` has applied the settings, use `resolvectl status <network_bridge>`:
```{terminal}
:input: resolvectl status incusbr0
