For the sake of simplicity, BIND and Consul are running on the same machine in
this example. For iptables the rules must be set on the same host as the Consul

### systemd-resolved Setup
`systemd-resolved` is typically configured with `/etc/systemd/resolved.conf`.
To configure systemd-resolved to send queries for the consul domain to
Consul, configure resolved.conf to contain the following:
```
DNS=127.0.0.1
Domains=~consul
```
The main limitation with this configuration is that the DNS field
cannot contain ports. So for this to work either Consul must be
[configured to listen on port 53](https://www.consul.io/docs/agent/options.html#dns_port)
instead of 8600 or you can use iptables to map port 53 to 8600.
The following iptables commands are sufficient to do the port
mapping.
```
[root@localhost ~]# iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -d localhost -p udp -m udp --dport 53 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 8600
[root@localhost ~]# iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -d localhost -p tcp -m tcp --dport 53 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 8600
```
Note: With this setup, PTR record queries will still be sent out
to the other configured resolvers in addition to Consul.
### iptables Setup
