Unbound uses the closest match for what forward and stub clause to
use.  So you can config more specific forward and stub clauses for the
zones and send their queries elsewhere.

With stub-zone you can make unbound ask authority servers.

# For example;
stub-zone:
	name: "nlnetlabs.nl"
	stub-host: ns-ext1.sidn.nl.
	stub-host: sec2.authdns.ripe.net.
	stub-host: anyns.pch.net.
	stub-addr: 185.49.140.60   # for ns.nlnetlabs.nl
	stub-addr: 2a04:b900::8:0:0:60  # for ns.nlnetlabs.nl

(For the nameservers in the zone itself I used IP addresses, to avoid
a circular dependency).

stub-prime: yes will make it fetch the NS set using this list of
servers and use that NS set for further queries.  Note that it will
use your global forwarder to lookup sec2.authdns.ripe.net.  If you do
not desire such lookups to the global forwarder, give IP addresses.

Best regards, Wouter
