AdGuard DNS v2.15: Your DNS with custom domains
Businesses deserve DNS protection that aligns with their infrastructure. With AdGuard DNS v2.15, subscribers can now use their own domains (like dns.example.com) instead of the default d.adguard-dns.com. The new setting ensures seamless integration with corporate security policies while maintaining full ad-blocking and privacy features provided by AdGuard DNS.
How to set up a custom domain
To configure a custom domain, log in to your AdGuard DNS dashboard and go to Account settings. Scroll down to Advanced settings and select Custom domains. Next you will need to go through three main steps: the protocol, CNAME, and certificates.
- Choose the protocol. Here, you have two options:
- Add DoH domain (for DNS-over-HTTPS)
- Add DoT/DoQ domain (for DNS-over-TLS or DNS-over-QUIC)
- After selecting your preferred protocol, enter the preferred domain name (e.g.,
example.com) and verify the CNAME record.
- Set up a certificate. For DoT/DoQ domains, you’ll need to upload a wildcard TLS certificate. If you choose DoH, you can either provide your own TLS certificate or let AdGuard DNS generate one for you. Once verified, your custom domain will appear in the dashboard, ready for use.
Important note
Custom domains are currently available only for the Enterprise subscription, but we plan to expand support to the Team plan in future updates.
Your feedback is always welcome
We’re excited to bring custom domains to AdGuard DNS, giving you more control over how your DNS protection looks and works. While currently available for Enterprise plans, we’re a;ways working to make our features more accessible. Have thoughts on how we could improve this or other features? We’d love to hear from you on GitHub or social media.
