+Manage DNS and DoH servers from netwatch
+========================================
+
+[◀ Go back to main README](../README.md)
+
+🛈 This script can not be used on its own but requires the base installation.
+See [main README](../README.md) for details.
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This script reads server state from netwatch and manages used DNS and
+DoH (DNS over HTTPS) servers.
+
+Requirements and installation
+-----------------------------
+
+Just install the script:
+
+    $ScriptInstallUpdate netwatch-dns;
+
+Then add a scheduler to run it periodically:
+
+    / system scheduler add interval=1m name=netwatch-dns on-event="/ system script run netwatch-dns;" start-time=startup;
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+The DNS and DoH servers to be checked have to be added to netwatch with
+specific comment:
+
+    / tool netwatch add comment="doh, hostname=cloudflare-dns" host=1.1.1.1;
+    / tool netwatch add comment="dns, hostname=google-dns" host=8.8.8.8;
+    / tool netwatch add comment="doh, dns, hostname=quad-nine" host=9.9.9.10;
+
+This will configure *cloudflare-dns* for DoH (`https://1.1.1.1/dnsquery`), and
+*google-dns* and *quad-nine* for regular DNS (`8.8.8.8,9.9.9.10`) if up.
+If *cloudflare-dns* is down the script will fall back to *quad-nine* for DoH.
+
+Giving a specific query url for DoH is possible:
+
+    / tool netwatch add comment="doh, hostname=nextdns, doh-url=https://dns.nextdns.io/dns-query" host=199.247.16.158;
+
+Note that using a name in DoH url may introduce a chicken-and-egg issue!
+
+Sometimes using just one specific (possibly internal) DNS server may be
+desired, with fallback in case it fails. This is possible as well:
+
+    / tool netwatch add comment="dns, hostname=pi-hole" host=10.0.0.10;
+    / tool netwatch add comment="dns-fallback, hostname=cloudflare-dns" host=1.1.1.1;
+
+Tips & Tricks
+-------------
+
+### Use in combination with notifications
+
+Netwatch entries can be created to work with both - this script and
+[netwatch-notify](netwatch-notify.md). Just give options for both:
+
+    / tool netwatch add comment="doh, notify, hostname=cloudflare-dns" host=1.1.1.1;
+
+Also this allows to update host address, see option `resolve`.
