Default Fields

The default rule uses the following matching logic:
(domain || domain_suffix || domain_keyword || domain_regex || ip_cidr) &&
(port || port_range) &&
(source_port || source_port_range) &&
other fields

query_type

Changes in sing-box 1.14.0

When a DNS rule references this rule-set, this field now also applies when the DNS rule is matched from an internal domain resolution that does not target a specific DNS server. In earlier versions, only DNS queries received from a client evaluated this field. See Migration for the full list.

When a DNS rule references a rule-set containing this field, the DNS rule is incompatible in the same DNS configuration with Legacy Address Filter Fields in DNS rules, the Legacy strategy DNS rule action option, and the Legacy rule_set_ip_cidr_accept_empty DNS rule item.
