 +==== Custom stubby configuration ====
 +
 +You can create your own custom stubby configuration. The stubby configuration generated via the web interface is located at: "/etc/stubby/stubby.yml". You can use that as a template and replace the resolvers with the ones you want and save it in the "/opt" or jffs partition (assuming one is set up). Your custom config must be placed in: "/etc/stubby/stubby_alt.yml". It will be used automatically when the service starts.
 +
 + \\
 +
 +For example, the code below shows a custom configuration with NextDNS resolvers that is copied from the "/opt" usb partition as part of a wanup script.\\ Code:
 +
 + \\
 +
 +<code ->
 +cp /opt/usr/my_cool_stubby_config.yml /etc/stubby/stubby_alt.yml
 +service stubby restart
 +</code>
