Setup and manage a Dnsmasq DNS server. This allows you to manipulate DNS requests. For example, you can have your Home Assistant domain resolve with an internal address inside your network.

{
  "defaults": ["8.8.8.8", "8.8.4.4"],
  "forwards": [
    {"domain": "mystuff.local", "server": "192.168.1.40"}
  ],
  "hosts": [
    {"host": "home.mydomain.io", "ip": "192.168.1.10"}
  ]
}

Configuration variables:

• defaults (Required): A list of DNS servers to forward default requests to.
• forwards (Optional): A list of domains that will forward to a specific server.
• hosts (Optional): A list of hosts to resolve statically.
