_Or: How to hook up your favourite network configuration manager's DNS logic with `systemd-resolved`_

Since systemd 229 `systemd-resolved` offers a powerful bus API that may be used by network configuration managers (e.g. NetworkManager, connman, …, but also lower level DHCP, VPN or PPP daemons managing specific interfaces) to pass DNS server and DNSSEC configuration directly to `systemd-resolved`. Note that `systemd-resolved` also reads the DNS configuration data in `/etc/resolv.conf`, for compatibility. However, by passing the DNS configuration directly to `systemd-resolved` via the bus a couple of benefits are available:

For details about these calls see the [full resolved bus API documentation](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/latest/org.freedesktop.resolve1.html).
The calls should be pretty obvious to use: they simply take an interface index and the parameters to set. IP addresses are encoded as an address family specifier (an integer, that takes the usual `AF_INET` and `AF_INET6` constants), followed by a 4 or 16 byte array with the address in network byte order.

If a network configuration manager wants to reset specific settings to the defaults (such as the DNSSEC, LLMNR or MulticastDNS mode), it may simply call the function with an empty argument. To reset all per-link changes it made it may call `RevertLink()`.
To read back the various settings made, use `GetLink()` to get a `org.freedesktop.resolve1.Link` object for a specific network interface. It exposes the current settings in its bus properties. See the [full bus API documentation](https://wiki.freedesktop.org/www/Software/systemd/resolved/) for details on this.

In order to translate a network interface name to an interface index, use the usual glibc `if_nametoindex()` call.
