You can leave your current dns server on port 53.

After installing unbound you can tell unbound to listen on another port (eg. 8853, or something else unused).

You would then change your authoritative dns server config to talk to localhost:8853 for upstream dns resolving instead of having it point to your ISP dns server or google or quad9 or whatever it is currently configured to connect.

This would allow you to leave unbound listening only on localhost interface instead of that server’s LAN IP interface. Other machines on the network will then connect port 53 for the authoritative server to get their local and public dns queries and not connect directly to unbound itself.

See https://unbound.docs.nlnetlabs.nl/en/latest/manpages/unbound.conf.html and https://unbound.docs.nlnetlabs.nl/en/latest/

You can probably use this config in /etc/unbound/unbound.conf.d/local.conf:

server:
    interface: 127.0.0.1
    port: 8853
