&
| + | DNS-over-HTTPS | The protocol encrypts DNS queries using HTTPS. Encryption prevents monitors from viewing internet activity. |
|---|---|---|
| + | DNS-over-QUIC | The protocol transmits DNS requests over QUIC. QUIC reduces latency and improves packet delivery across networks. |
| + | Service Blocking | Administrators can block access to platforms like YouTube or Facebook using switches. The capability simplifies network restrictions without requiring rule creation |
| + | NSFW Blocking | The module blocks domains with NSFW content. The blocking protects children from viewing NSFW content, aiding in parental control. |
| + | Search Filtering | The function forces search engines to filter results. Filtering hides NSFW from queries on Google, Bing, and YouTube. |
| + | Upstream Routing | Administrators can route requests to DNS servers using domains. Routing allows domain resolution across intranets. |
| + | Query Logs | Records DNS requests from devices. Logs provide visibility into network activity and help administrators troubleshoot connectivity. |
| + | DHCP Server | Assigns IP addresses to devices on the network. Operating as a DHCP server simplifies setup for device identification. |
| + | Client Management | Helps administrators apply rules to devices using MAC addresses or IP addresses. Targeting devices allows administrators to bypass blocks for users. |
| + | Access Management | Helps administrators restrict network access by listing IP addresses. The list prevents outsiders from utilizing the DNS server. |
| + | Blocklist Subscriptions | Downloads lists with trackers and malware domains. Syncing lists automates protection against tracking and malware. |
| + | DNS Rewrites | Helps administrators map domains to IP addresses. Mapping directs traffic to servers on the network. |
| + | Rate Limiting | Drops DNS requests when devices exceed request thresholds. Dropping requests prevents attacks from degrading network performance. |
| + | Cache Updates | Delivers cache contents to devices while requesting updates in the background. Delivering contents reduces wait times for domain resolution. |
| + | DNSCrypt Support | Acts as a DNSCrypt server and a DNSCrypt client. Implementing DNSCrypt adds security to communications between devices and resolvers. |
| + | Statistics Dashboard | The interface displays charts with metrics like blocks and queries. Visualizing metrics helps administrators understand network traffic. |
| + | EDNS Subnets | Forwards the IP subnet of the requester to resolvers. Forwarding the subnet helps content delivery networks route traffic to servers with proximity. |
| + | Rule Syntax | Helps administrators write rules using Adblock syntax. Adblock syntax provides control over blocklists by allowing exceptions and modifiers. |
| + | API Access | Provides an API for configuration and management. API endpoints allow developers to automate server management through code. |
| + | SSL Encryption | Helps administrators secure the interface by adding SSL certificates. Adding certificates encrypts sessions and protects credentials from interception. |
| + | IPv6 Support | Processes DNS queries over IPv6 networks. Processing IPv6 queries ensures compatibility with IPv6 internet protocols. |
