        - `"true"`:
            all DNS lookups are DNSSEC-validated locally (excluding
            LLMNR and Multicast DNS). Note that this mode requires a
            DNS server that supports DNSSEC. If the DNS server does
            not properly support DNSSEC all validations will fail.
        - `"allow-downgrade"`:
            DNSSEC validation is attempted, but if the server does not
            support DNSSEC properly, DNSSEC mode is automatically
            disabled. Note that this mode makes DNSSEC validation
            vulnerable to "downgrade" attacks, where an attacker might
            be able to trigger a downgrade to non-DNSSEC mode by
            synthesizing a DNS response that suggests DNSSEC was not
            supported.
        - `"false"`: DNS lookups are not DNSSEC validated.

        At the time of September 2023, systemd upstream advise
        to disable DNSSEC by default as the current code
        is not robust enough to deal with "in the wild" non-compliant
        servers, which will usually give you a broken bad experience
        in addition of insecure.

            all DNS lookups will be encrypted. This requires
            that the DNS server supports DNS-over-TLS and
            has a valid certificate. If the hostname was specified
            via the `address#hostname` format in {option}`services.resolved.domains`
            then the specified hostname is used to validate its certificate.
        - `"opportunistic"`:
            all DNS lookups will attempt to be encrypted, but will fallback
            to unecrypted requests if the server does not support DNS-over-TLS.
            Note that this mode does allow for a malicious party to conduct a
            downgrade attack by immitating the DNS server and pretending to not
            support encryption.
        - `"false"`:
            all DNS lookups are done unencrypted.
