A DNS proxy server written in Go that supports all modern encrypted DNS protocols including DNS-over-TLS, DNS-over-HTTPS, DNSCrypt, and DNS-over-QUIC, and can also act as an encrypted DNS server itself. It includes features like DNS caching, DNS64, per-domain upstream routing, EDNS Client Subnet, and bogus NXDomain filtering.
Use cases
- encrypt local DNS traffic with DoH, DoT, DoQ or DNSCrypt
- run a local DNS proxy forwarding to encrypted upstreams
- serve DNS-over-HTTPS or DNS-over-TLS from my own server
- cache DNS responses and override TTLs
- route specific domains to different DNS upstreams
- set up a DNS64 server for IPv6-only networks
- filter bogus DNS responses into NXDOMAIN by subnet
When to choose
- you need a lightweight, cross-platform DNS proxy supporting all encrypted DNS protocols
- you want a Go library to embed encrypted DNS resolution in your own application
- you need per-domain upstream routing, caching, or DNS64 in a single tool
When to avoid
- you need full ad-blocking and a web UI, where AdGuard Home is a better fit
- you need a full recursive DNS resolver rather than a forwarding proxy
- you want a GUI-managed DNS solution for non-technical users
