; Binding to Acrylic to 0.0.0.0 has a known issue of causing problems with WSL2 which depends on port 53
; By binding Acrylic to the localhost loopback address (127.0.0.1), this prevents it from blocking port 53
; on the WSL2 vEthernet interface.
; If Acrylic should handle DNS request for all network interfaces, then as an alternative, this should be set to 0.0.0.0
; and LocalIPv4BindingPort should be changed to a port other than 53

; The local UDPv4 port to which Acrylic binds. The default value of 53 is the standard port for DNS resolution. You
