Setup a Secure Resolver using Unbound

The purpose of the lab is to setup the resolver on the first server. You should install either BIND or Unbound -- not both (unless uninstall BIND first).

  1. Connect to the server (resolverX.odslab.se) by using SSH or PuTTY.

  2. Change the host name.

    sudo hostnamectl set-hostname resolverX.odslab.se
    
  3. Login and logout to get an updated command prompt.

  4. Upgrade base operating system:

    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y
    
  5. Uninstall BIND if previously installed:

    sudo dpkg --purge bind9
    
  6. Install Unbound as the resolver. Also install dnsutils for dig(1).

    sudo apt-get install -y unbound dnsutils
    
  7. Verify by using dig. Notice that the AD-flag is set.

    dig @127.0.0.1 +dnssec www.opendnssec.org
    
  8. Also try resolving a domain where DNSSEC is broken.

    dig @127.0.0.1 www.trasigdnssec.se
    

    But we can see that in fact the domain does contain the information if we bypass the DNSSEC validation:

    dig @127.0.0.1 +cd +dnssec www.trasigdnssec.se
