# Dnsmasq {#module-services-networking-dnsmasq}
Dnsmasq is an integrated DNS, DHCP and TFTP server for small networks.
## Configuration {#module-services-networking-dnsmasq-configuration}
### An authoritative DHCP and DNS server on a home network {#module-services-networking-dnsmasq-configuration-home}
On a home network, you can use Dnsmasq as a DHCP and DNS server. New devices on
your network will be configured by Dnsmasq, and instructed to use it as the DNS
server by default. This allows you to rely on your own server to perform DNS
queries and caching, with DNSSEC enabled.
The following example assumes that
- you have disabled your router's integrated DHCP server, if it has one
- your router's address is set in [](#opt-networking.defaultGateway.address)
- your system's Ethernet interface is `eth0`
- you have configured the address(es) to forward DNS queries in [](#opt-networking.nameservers)
```nix
{
services.dnsmasq = {
enable = true;
settings = {
interface = "eth0";
bind-interfaces = true; # Only bind to the specified interface
dhcp-authoritative = true; # Should be set when dnsmasq is definitely the only DHCP server on a network
server = config.networking.nameservers; # Upstream dns servers to which requests should be forwarded
dhcp-host = [
# Give the current system a fixed address of 192.168.0.254
"dc:a6:32:0b:ea:b9,192.168.0.254,${config.networking.hostName},infinite"
];
dhcp-option = [
# Address of the gateway, i.e. your router
"option:router,${config.networking.defaultGateway.address}"
];
dhcp-range = [
# Range of IPv4 addresses to give out
# <range start>,<range end>,<lease time>
"192.168.0.10,192.168.0.253,24h"
# Enable stateless IPv6 allocation
"::f,::ff,constructor:eth0,ra-stateless"
];
dhcp-rapid-commit = true; # Faster DHCP negotiation for IPv6
local-service = true; # Accept DNS queries only from hosts whose address is on a local subnet
log-queries = true; # Log results of all DNS queries
bogus-priv = true; # Don't forward requests for the local address ranges (192.168.x.x etc) to upstream nameservers
domain-needed = true; # Don't forward requests without dots or domain parts to upstream nameservers
dnssec = true; # Enable DNSSEC
# DNSSEC trust anchor. Source: https://data.iana.org/root-anchors/root-anchors.xml
trust-anchor = ".,20326,8,2,E06D44B80B8F1D39A95C0B0D7C65D08458E880409BBC683457104237C7F8EC8D";
