Thanks Stuart, A year or two ago I set the following sysctl which did help, fdns1# cat /etc/sysctl.conf net.inet.udp.recvspace=262144 net.inet.udp.sendspace=262144
Thanks for the tip re diagnosing the UDP buffers output of the command you suggested looks good from a buffer perspective... The server has been running a few hours fdns1# netstat -s -p udp udp: 32820423 datagrams received 0 with incomplete header 0 with bad data length field 7 with bad checksum 133788 with no checksum 32686635 input packets software-checksummed 0 output packets software-checksummed 40699 dropped due to no socket 13873 broadcast/multicast datagrams dropped due to no socket 0 dropped due to missing IPsec protection 0 dropped due to full socket buffers 32765844 delivered 32913599 datagrams output 24008710 missed PCB cache Thanks again, Really appreciate your Tom Smyth On Wed, 22 Dec 2021 at 11:26, Stuart Henderson <stu.li...@spacehopper.org> wrote: > On 2021-12-22, Dirk Coetzee <d...@best-it.tech> wrote: > > Hi Tom, > > > > I would recommend debugging using "unbound-control stats_noreset" and > referencing the unbound configuration documentation at > https://www.nlnetlabs.nl/documentation/unbound/unbound.conf/ > > Also check for "dropped due to full socket buffers" in netstat -s -p udp, > some have reported needing to raise net.inet.udp.*space sysctls. > > You might also consider front-ending with dnsdist.
