+ records and services with the
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-resolved.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ resolver service. By default, the specified list of parameters will be resolved as hostnames, retrieving their IPv4
+ and IPv6 addresses. If the parameters specified are formatted as IPv4 or IPv6 addresses the reverse operation is
+ done, and a hostname is retrieved for the specified addresses.</para>
+
+ <para>The program's output contains information about the protocol used for the look-up and on which network
+ interface the data was discovered. It also contains information on whether the information could be
+ authenticated. All data for which local DNSSEC validation succeeds is considered authenticated. Moreover all data
+ originating from local, trusted sources is also reported authenticated, including resolution of the local host
+ name, the <literal>localhost</literal> hostname or all data from <filename>/etc/hosts</filename>.</para>

+ <command>default-route</command> command expects a boolean parameter, and configures whether the
+ link may be used as default route for DNS lookups, i.e. if it is suitable for lookups on domains no
+ other link explicitly is configured for. The <command>llmnr</command>, <command>mdns</command>,
