A. Schulze via Unbound-users:

stub-zone:
    name: "10.in-addr.arpa."
    stub-addr: ${nameserver1-ip}
    stub-addr: ${nameserver2-ip}


Everything is fine as long as both nameservers are up.
If one server fail (simple case: host up, nameserver down) client get "no servers could be reached" or similar answers from local stubresolver.



I have an update.
It works as expected if I use "forward-zone + forward-addr" statements.
In that case my config looks like this:

forward-zone:
    name: "10-in-addr.arpa."
    forward-addr: ${nameserver1-ip}
    forward-addr: ${nameserver2-ip}

Now I could switch of one of both nameservers. As long as one nameserver is up
any question, even for un-cached data, is answered immediately.

Am I right that "forward-zone" is not the correct setup to point unbound to a authoritative nameserver?
So maybe there is still a bug somewhere in unbound-1.5.9 ...
