32 <para>
33 <application>Unbound</application> is a validating, recursive, and caching
34 DNS resolver. It is designed as a set of modular components that
35 incorporate modern features, such as enhanced security (DNSSEC)
36 validation, Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6), and a client resolver
37 library API as an integral part of the architecture.
