%h1 About DNSCrypt-OSXClient
|
|
%p
|
|
This software encrypts and authenticates DNS packets between your computer
|
|
and a DNS resolver using DNSCrypt.
|
|
%p
|
|
Tips:
|
|
%ul
|
|
%li
|
|
If you have a firewall, open TCP and UDP ports 53, 54, 443
|
|
and 1053. These are the most common ports used for DNSCrypt.
|
|
%li
|
|
The "Automatically disable if blocked" feature automatically disables
|
|
DNSCrypt when DNS queries are not able to reach the DNSCrypt
|
|
resolver. This can
|
|
happen on public WiFi networks that require going through a captive
|
|
portal before you can access external networks.
|
|
This function is only provided for conveniency.
|
|
When enabled, the protocol can be easily downgraded by
|
|
third-parties. In other words, when the "Automatically
|
|
disable if blocked" feature is enabled, this software doesn't
|
|
provide any security at all against active attackers, but it can
|
|
still be useful against passive attackers and in order to bypass
|
|
DNS censorship. Don't enable it unless you are frequently
|
|
roaming and you don't want to manually disable/enable DNSCrypt.
