+.SH "NAME"
+kresd.systemd
+\- managing Knot Resolver @version@ through systemd.
+
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.nf
+kresd@.service
+kresd.target
+system-kresd.slice
+.fi
+
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.P
+This manual page describes how to manage \fBkresd\fR using \fBsystemd\fR
+units.
+
+.B QUICKSTART
+
+.nf
+.RS 4n
+\fBsystemctl start kresd@1\fR - single instance of kresd, responding on localhost
+.RE
+.fi
+
+.B CONCURRENT DAEMONS
+
+\fBkresd\fR daemon can be executed in multiple independent processes, which are
+managed with \fBsystemd\fR via systemd templates (see \fBsystemd.unit\fR(5)).
+Each \fBsystemd\fR service instance of \fBkresd\fR (\fIkresd@.service\fR)
+represents a single, independent kresd process.
+
+If you have more than one CPU core available, a single running \fBkresd\fR
+daemon will only be able to make use of one core at a time, leaving the other
+cores idle.  If you want \fBkresd\fR to take advantage of all available cores,
+while sharing both cache and sockets, you should enable and start as many
+instances of the \fBkresd@.service\fR as you have cores.  Typically, each
+instance is just named \fIkresd@\fBN\fI.service\fR, where \fIN\fR is a decimal
+number. For example, to enable and start 3 concurrent daemons:
+
+.nf
+.RS 4n
+.B systemctl enable --now kresd@1.service kresd@2.service kresd@3.service
+.RE
+.fi
+
+The systemd-managed \fBkresd\fR service set is grouped in the
+\fIsystem-kresd.slice\fR slice.  The slice includes all running daemons
+(instances of \fIkresd@.service\fR).
+
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+
+To start a single kresd instance and enable it at boot:
+.nf
+.RS 4n
+.B systemctl enable --now kresd@1.service
+.RE
+.fi
+
+To restart (or stop) all running instances, you can use a glob expression.
+Please note that glob can't be used to start or enable instances.
+.nf
+.RS 4n
+.B systemctl restart 'kresd@*'
+.RE
+.fi
+
+Bash users can also use Brace Expansion to enable or start multiple instances,
+instead of listing them manually.
+.nf
+.RS 4n
+.B systemctl enable --now kresd@{1..4}.service
+.RE
+.fi
+
+To start all enabled kresd daemons, you can also use the provided \fIkresd.target\fR:
+.nf
+.RS 4n
+.B systemctl start kresd.target
+.RE
+.fi
