DNS configuration Anonymity Linux Distribution Gateways

  • Whether a Anonymity Linux Distribution Gateway supports system DNS for its own traffic in the clear or anonymized mainly depends on the Gateway's firewall.
  • Routing the workstation's system DNS through the anonymizer (also known as Transparent DNS Proxy) or not is up to the Gateway's firewall as well.
