@item @code{servers} (default: @code{'()})
Specify IP address of upstream servers directly.
+@item @code{addresses} (default: @code{'()})
+For each entry, specify an IP address to return for any host in the
+given domains. Queries in the domains are never forwarded and always
+replied to with the specified IP address.
+
+This is useful for redirecting hosts locally, for example:
+
+@lisp
+(service dnsmasq-service-type
+ (dnsmasq-configuration
+ (addresses
+ '(; Redirect to a local web-server.
+ "/example.org/127.0.0.1"

+ "/subdomain.example.org/192.168.1.42"))))
+@end lisp

+Note that rules in @file{/etc/hosts} take precedence over this.

@item @code{cache-size} (default: @code{150})
Set the size of dnsmasq's cache. Setting the cache size to zero
disables caching.
