.br
How should FTL reply to blocked queries?
IP - Pi-hole's IPs for blocked domains
IP-AAAA-NODATA - Pi-hole's IP + NODATA-IPv6 for blocked domains
NODATA - Using NODATA for blocked domains
NXDOMAIN - NXDOMAIN for blocked domains
NULL - Null IPs for blocked domains
.br
\fBCNAME_DEEP_INSPECT=true|false\fR
.br
Use this option to disable deep CNAME inspection. This might be beneficial for very low-end devices.

Block requests to _esni.* sub-domains.
.br
\fBMAXLOGAGE=24.0\fR

.br
Listen only for local socket connections or permit all connections
Maximum is 744 (31 days)
.br
\fBQUERY_DISPLAY=yes|no\fR
\fBPRIVACYLEVEL=0|1|2|3|4\fR
.br

\fBANALYZE_ONLY_A_AND_AAAA=false|true\fR
.br
Should FTL only analyze A and AAAA queries?
.br
\fBSOCKET_LISTENING=localonly|all\fR
.br
Listen only for local socket connections on the API port or permit all connections.
.br
\fBFTLPORT=4711\fR
.br
On which port should FTL be listening?
.br
\fBRESOLVE_IPV6=yes|no\fR

Should FTL try to resolve IPv6 addresses to host names?
Should FTL try to resolve IPv6 addresses to hostnames?

\fBDELAY_STARTUP=0\fR
.br
Time in seconds (between 0 and 300) to delay FTL startup.
.br
\fBNICE=-10\fR
.br
Set the niceness of the Pi-hole FTL process.
.br
Can be disabled altogether by setting a value of -999.
.br
\fBNAMES_FROM_NETDB=true|false\fR
.br
Control whether FTL should use a fallback option and try to obtain client names from checking the network table.
.br
E.g. IPv6 clients without a hostname will be compared via MAC address to known clients.
.br
\fB\fBREFRESH_HOSTNAMES=IPV4|ALL|NONE\fR
.br
Change how (and if) hourly PTR requests are made to check for changes in client and upstream server hostnames:
.br
IPV4 - Do the hourly PTR lookups only for IPv4 addresses resolving issues in networks with many short-lived PE IPv6 addresses.
.br
ALL - Do the hourly PTR lookups for all addresses. This can create a lot of PTR queries in networks with many IPv6 addresses.
.br
NONE - Don't do hourly PTR lookups. Look up hostnames once (when first seeing a client) and never again. Future hostname changes may be missed.
.br
\fBMAXNETAGE=365\fR
.br
IP addresses (and associated host names) older than the specified number of days are removed.
.br
This avoids dead entries in the network overview table.
.br
\fBEDNS0_ECS=true|false\fR
.br
Should we overwrite the query source when client information is provided through EDNS0 client subnet (ECS) information?
.br
\fBPARSE_ARP_CACHE=true|false\fR
.br
Parse ARP cache to fill network overview table.
.br
\fBDBIMPORT=yes|no\fR
