Hi wowon,
The function that calculates the hash is in the cachedb module at
https://github.com/NLnetLabs/unbound/blob/5588f66bdb8c8276b98a0fec4c9e04622999cfe3/cachedb/cachedb.c#L332
In short it is a hex representation of a hash that consists of the name,
type, class and the backend secret.
Best regards,

I'm trying to setup unbound with cachedb and use redis as it's backend
here is my unbound config:
```
server:
module-config: "cachedb validator iterator"
pidfile: "/run/unbound/unbound.pid"
verbosity: 4
log-queries: yes
logfile: "/var/log/unbound.log"
cachedb:
backend: redis
secret-seed: "mysecretseed2025"
redis-server-host: 127.0.0.1
redis-server-port: 6379
redis-logical-db: 0
```
when i try to do "dig" :
```
dig @127.0.0.1 <http://127.0.0.1> www.vw.com <http://www.vw.com>
```
here what I got from redis-cli monitor:

```
my question is: How unbound cachedb module "encode" that two field (key,
value)?
