If you're interested in dnsvizor, please [open an issue at our repository](https://github.com/robur-coop/dnsvizor/issues/new)
with your dnsmasq configuration. This will help us to guide which parts of the configuration to prioritize.
## Usages of DNSvizor
We have several use cases for DNSvizor:
- at your home router to provide DNS resolution and DHCP service, filtering ads,
- in the datacenter auto-configuring your machine park,
- when running your unikernel swarm to auto-configure them.
The first one is where pi-hole as well fits into, and where dnsmasq is used quite
a lot. The second one is also a domain where dnsmasq is used. The third one is
from our experience that lots of people struggle with deploying MirageOS
unikernels since they have to manually do IP configuration etc. We ourselves
also pass additional information to the unikernels, such as syslog host,
monitoring sink, X.509 certificates or host names, do some DNS provisioning, ...
With DNSvizor we will leverage the common configuration options of all
unikernels (reducing the need for boot arguments), and also go a bit further
and make deployment seamless (including adding hostnames to DNS, forwarding
from our reverse TLS proxy, etc.).
