This article is about AdGuard for Mac, a multifunctional ad blocker that protects your device at the system level. To see how it works, download the AdGuard app

DNS protection​

The DNS section contains one feature, DNS protection, with multiple settings:

  • Providers
  • 필터
  • Blocklist
  • 허용 목록

DNS

If you enable DNS protection, DNS traffic will be managed by AdGuard.

Providers​

Under Providers, you can select a DNS server to encrypt your DNS traffic and block ads and trackers if necessary. We recommend AdGuard DNS. For more advanced configuration, you can set up a private AdGuard DNS server or add a custom one by clicking the + icon in the lower left corner.

필터​

DNS filters apply ad-blocking rules at the DNS level. Such filtering is less precise than regular ad blocking, but it’s particularly useful for blocking an entire domain. To add a DNS filter, click +. You can find more DNS filters at filterlists.com.

Blocklist​

Domains from this list will be blocked. To add a domain, click +. You can add domain names or DNS filtering rules using a special syntax.

To export or import a blocklist, open the context menu.

허용 목록​

Domains from this list aren’t filtered. To add a domain, click +. To export or import an allowlist, open the context menu.
