### Binary architecture

The binary `pihole-FTL`, which is the resolver at the heart of Pi-hole, is pre-built for the following architectures:

- x86_64 (amd64 and i686)
- armv6
- armv7
- armv8 (aarch64)
- riscv64

For other architectures, you will need to compile [FTL from source](../ftldns/compile.md) yourself.

## IP Addressing
