+	  If this is set, then if the system has multiple network interfaces

+	  If this option is not set, then any interface can be used for all
+	  the configured DNS server addresses when doing DNS queries.
+	  Example: We receive DNS server 2001:db8::1:53 DHCPv6 option from Wi-Fi
+	  interface and DNS server 2001:db8::2:53 from Ethernet interface.
+	  When this option is set, the DNS resolver will use DNS server
+	  2001:db8::1:53 when sending DNS query to the Wi-Fi interface and DNS
+	  server 2001:db8::2:53 when sending DNS query to the Ethernet
