DNS Proxy device management payload settings for Apple devices
You can configure DNS Proxy settings for users of an iPhone, iPad, Shared iPad, Mac, or Apple Vision Pro that enrolls in a device management service. Use the DNS Proxy payload to specify the app providing the DNS proxy network extension and any vendor-specific values.
Note: Multiple DNS proxies can be used, but per-app and system wide proxies can’t be combined.
The DNS Proxy payload supports the following. For more information, see Payload information.
Supported installation method: Requires a device management service to install.
Supported payload identifier: com.apple.dnsProxy.managed
Supported operating systems and channels: iOS, iPadOS, Shared iPad device, macOS device, visionOS 1.1.
Supported enrollment methods: Automated Device Enrollment.
Duplicates allowed: True—more than one DNS Proxy payload can be delivered to a device.
You can use the settings in the table below with the DNS Proxy payload.
Setting | Description | Required | |||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
App bundle ID | The app that contains the DNS proxy information by their bundle ID. | Yes | |||||||||
DNS Proxy UUID iOS 16 or later iPadOS 16.1 or later | A globally unique identifier for this DNS proxy configuration. Managed Apps with the same DNS Proxy UUID in their app attributes have their DNS lookups traffic processed by the proxy. | No | |||||||||
Provider bundle ID | The DNS proxy extension bundle ID. | No | |||||||||
Provider configuration | If a DNS provider or network vendor has a specific configuration file, you can either upload it or enter the keys manually. | No |
Note: Each device management service developer implements these settings differently. To learn how various DNS Proxy settings are applied to your devices, consult your developer’s device management service documentation.
