<title>DNSCrypt client proxy</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The DNSCrypt client proxy relays DNS queries to a DNSCrypt enabled
|
|
upstream resolver. The traffic between the client and the upstream
|
|
resolver is encrypted and authenticated, mitigating the risk of MITM
|
|
attacks, DNS poisoning attacks, and third-party snooping (assuming the
|
|
upstream is trustworthy).

To enable the client proxy, set

Enabling the client proxy does not alter the system nameserver; to
|
|
relay local queries, prepend <literal>127.0.0.1</literal> to

|
<option>networking.nameservers</option>.

To run the DNSCrypt proxy client as a forwarder for another
|
|
DNS client, change the default proxy listening port to a
|
|
non-standard value and point the other client to it:
|
|
<programlisting>

<xref linkend="opt-services.dnscrypt-proxy.localPort"/> = 43;
