  1. Go to Services → DNS Resolver and on the tab General Settings scroll down to the Custom Options box.
  2. Enter the following lines, replacing <your config_id> with your confiugration ID:
server:
  forward-zone:
    name: "."
    forward-tls-upstream: yes
    forward-addr: 45.90.28.0#<your config_id>.dns1.nextdns.io
    forward-addr: 2a07:a8c0::#<your config_id>.dns1.nextdns.io
    forward-addr: 45.90.30.0#<your config_id>.dns2.nextdns.io
    forward-addr: 2a07:a8c1::#<your config_id>.dns2.nextdns.io

⚠️ pfSense uses Unbound. As a recursive resolver, Unbound chases CNAMEs. This may result in unexpected behavior when used in conjunction with a blocking DNS resolver like NextDNS. See github.com/NLnetLabs/unbound/issues/132.
