DNS proxy declarative configuration for Apple devices
Use the DNS proxy configuration to route a device’s DNS queries through an app extension that provides a DNS proxy. The device passes the query traffic to the app you identify by its bundle identifier.
The DNS proxy configuration supports the following:
Minimum supported operating system versions and channels: iOS 27, iPadOS 27, Shared iPad device, macOS 27 device, visionOS 27.
Requires supervision: No.
Supported enrollment methods: User Enrollment (iOS, iPadOS, and visionOS only), Device Enrollment, Automated Device Enrollment.
DNS proxy settings
Setting | Description | Required | |||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Visible name | The name of the DNS proxy configuration that the operating system displays on the device. | Yes | |||||||||
App bundle identifier | The bundle identifier of the app containing the DNS proxy network extension. | Yes | |||||||||
Provider composed identifier | The identifier of the provider to use for this configuration. Useful for apps that contain more than one DNS proxy extension. In iOS, iPadOS, and visionOS, the identifier is a bundle ID, for example, “ In macOS, the identifier is a composed identifier. The format of the composed identifier is either “ | No | |||||||||
Provider configuration | The dictionary of vendor-specific configuration items. | No | |||||||||
DNS proxy UUID | A globally unique identifier for this DNS proxy configuration. The proxy processes DNS lookups traffic for managed apps with the same DNS proxy UUID in their app attributes. | Required for User Enrollment. | |||||||||
Note: Not all configurations and their settings are available in all device management services. Each device management service developer implements these settings differently. To learn which settings are available for your devices, consult your developer’s device management service documentation.
