We are currently doing a best-effort installation of Rspamd for ARM64 (from the Debian backports repository for Debian 11). The current version difference as of 1st Apr 2023: AMD64 is at version 3.5 | ARM64 is at version 3.4.

### Mode of Operation
|
||||
|

The proxy worker operates in [self-scan mode][proxy-self-scan-mode]. This simplifies the setup as we do not require a normal worker. You can easily change this though by [overriding the configuration by DMS](#providing-custom-settings-overriding-settings).

|

|

DMS does not set a default password for the controller worker. You may want to do that yourself. In setups where you already have an authentication provider in front of the Rspamd webpage, you may want to [set the `secure_ip ` option to `"0.0.0.0/0"` for the controller worker](#with-the-help-of-a-custom-file) to disable password authentication inside Rspamd completely.

### Persistence with Redis
|
||||
|
||||
When Rspamd is enabled, we implicitly also start an instance of Redis in the container. Redis is configured to persist it's data via RDB snapshots to disk in the directory `/var/lib/redis` (_which is a symbolic link to `/var/mail-state/lib-redis/` when [`ONE_DIR=1`](../environment.md#one_dir) and a volume is mounted to `/var/mail-state/`_). With the volume mount the snapshot will restore the Redis data across container restarts, and provide a way to keep backup.

### DNS
|
||||
|
||||
DMS does not supply custom values for DNS servers to Rspamd. If you need to use custom DNS servers, which could be required when using [DNS-based black/whitelists](#rbls-realtime-blacklists-dnsbls-dns-based-blacklists), you need to adjust [`options.inc`][rspamd-docs-basic-options] yourself.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! tip "Making DNS Servers Configurable"
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to see an environment variable (like `RSPAMD_DNS_SERVERS`) to support custom DNS servers for Rspamd being added to DMS, please raise a feature request issue.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! danger
|
||||
|
||||
While we do not provide values for custom DNS servers by default, we set `soft_reject_on_timeout = true;` by default. This setting will cause a soft reject if a task (presumably a DNS request) timeout takes place.
|
||||
|
||||
This setting is enabled to not allow spam to proceed just because DNS requests did not succeed. It could deny legitimate e-mails to pass though too in case your DNS setup is incorrect or not functioning properly.

If you want to use DNSBLs, **try to use your own DNS resolver** and make sure it is set up correctly, i.e. it should be a non-public & **recursive** resolver.
