Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Unbound -> Overrides is changing a bit so it would make sense to keep this up-to-date in the documentation. It isn't very well documented in general so an elaboration here is fitting.

Things to consider:

  • How PTR records are generated.
  • Clearly describe how system A/AAAA records can be manipulated.
  • Hint that domain overrides shouldn't really be used for it's functionality as it functions completely different from a Host Override, instead refer to the Query Forwarding page.

Just for completeness from roadmap discussion: overrides and query forwarding are the same thing according to the forum https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=29813.0
