Should have been 'testing' and not 'unstable'.

In addition to Henning Follmann <hfollmann@itcfollmann.com>'s answer:

On buster the '/etc/apt/sources.list' file might look like:

"deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian buster main

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main

# buster-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates main"

And on Bullseye:

"deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye main

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main"


Mind the security lines!
