Why it is useful

Not everyone feels at ease adding devices through the Dashboard. For instance, if you’re a system administrator setting up multiple corporate devices simultaneously, you’ll want to minimize manual tasks as much as possible.

You can create a connection link and use it in the device settings. Your device will be detected and automatically connected to the server.

How to configure automatic connection

  1. Open the Dashboard and select the required server.
  2. Go to Devices.
  3. Enable the option to connect devices automatically. Connect devices automatically *mobile_border

Now you can automatically connect your device to the server by creating a special address that includes the device name, device type, and current server ID. Let’s explore what these addresses look like and the rules for creating them.

Examples of automatic connection addresses

  • tls://adr-{Your_Server_ID}-AdGuard-Test-Device.d.adguard-dns.com — this will automatically create an Android device with the DNS-over-TLS protocol named AdGuard Test Device

  • https://d.adguard-dns.com/dns-query/win-{Your_Server_ID}-John-Doe — this will automatically create a Windows device with the DNS-over-HTTPS protocol named John Doe

  • quic://ios-73f78a1d-Mary-Sue.d.adguard-dns.com — this will automatically create a iOS device with the DNS-over-QUIC protocol named Mary Sue

Naming conventions

When creating devices manually, please note that there are restrictions related to name length, characters, spaces, and hyphens.

Name length: 50 characters maximum. Characters beyond this limit are ignored.

Permitted characters: English letters, numbers, and hyphens -. Other characters are ignored.

Spaces and hyphens: Use a hyphen for a space and a double hyphen ( --) for a hyphen.

Device type: Use the following abbreviations:

  • Windows — win

  • Android — adr
  • iOS — ios
  • Linux — lnx
  • Router — rtr
  • Akıllı TV — stv

We’ve added a template that generates a link for the specific device type and protocol.

  2. Select the protocol you want to use as well as the device name and the device type.
  3. Click Generate link. Generate link *mobile_border
