You do need to add the address to an interface, but you don't need to add a new dummy interface. This will make your config work too: ip addr add 127.0.0.53 dev lo It doesn't matter that lo already is configured with 127.0.0.1/8. You can still add specific /32s within the same prefix. I understand that this behaviour was unexpected, but the acl functionality of listen-on has some advantages too. Makes it easier to dynamically add or remove addresses. Or sharing configs among servers listening to different addresses, while still having the ability to filter out unwanted addresses.
