[Dnsmasq-discuss] [Feature Request] Tagged server and address configuration

[M. Buecher]

Hello Simon and dnsmasq fellows,

I blacklist several domains via host files and wanted to skip the 
blacklist for my testing client.
Unfortunately I couldn't find a solution for this in the man page, or 
maybe I just didn't see the correct config combination.
Or did I miss a way to configure this with the existing features?


So I came up with the idea of tag-matching server and address 
configuration, like...
--server=[tag:<tag>[,tag:<tag>],][/[<domain>]/[domain/]][<ipaddr>[#<port>][@<source-ip>|<interface>[#<port>]]
--address=[tag:<tag>[,tag:<tag>],]/<domain>[/<domain>...]/[<ipaddr>]

This would provide a highly flexible way to blacklist/whitelist  domains 
for specific clients.
But I assume it may be an ugly coding hell to implement.


Kind regards
Maddes
