.B \-P, --edns-packet-max=<size>
Specify the largest EDNS.0 UDP packet which is supported by the DNS
forwarder. Defaults to 1280, which is the RFC2671-recommended maximum
for ethernet.
.TP
.B \-Q, --query-port=<query_port>
Send outbound DNS queries from, and listen for their replies on, the specific UDP port <query_port> instead of using one chosen at runtime. Useful to simplify your
firewall rules; without this, your firewall would have to allow connections from outside DNS servers to a range of UDP ports, or dynamically adapt to the
port being used by the current dnsmasq instance.

.B \-i, --interface=<interface name>
Listen only on the specified interface. More than one interface may be specified. Dnsmasq always listens on the loopback (local) interface. If no

the loopback interface is not special: if dnsmasq is to listen on the loopback interface,

Listen on the given IP address(es). Both
.B \--interface

.B \--listen-address
options may be given, in which case the set of both interfaces and
addresses is used. Note that if no
.B \--interface
option is given, but
.B \--listen-address
is, dnsmasq will not automatically listen on the loopback
interface. To achieve this, its IP address, 127.0.0.1, must be
