<title>DNSCrypt client proxy</title>
<para>
The DNSCrypt client proxy relays DNS queries to a DNSCrypt enabled upstream
resolver. The traffic between the client and the upstream resolver is
encrypted and authenticated, mitigating the risk of MITM attacks, DNS
poisoning attacks, and third-party snooping (assuming the upstream is
trustworthy).
</para>
<sect1 xml:id="sec-dnscrypt-proxy-configuration">
<title>Basic configuration</title>
<para>
To enable the client proxy, set
<programlisting>
<xref linkend="opt-services.dnscrypt-proxy.enable"/> = true;
</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
Enabling the client proxy does not alter the system nameserver; to relay
local queries, prepend <literal>127.0.0.1</literal> to
<option>networking.nameservers</option>.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 xml:id="sec-dnscrypt-proxy-forwarder">
<title>As a forwarder for another DNS client</title>
<para>
To run the DNSCrypt proxy client as a forwarder for another DNS client,
change the default proxy listening port to a non-standard value and point
the other client to it:
<programlisting>
<xref linkend="opt-services.dnscrypt-proxy.localPort"/> = 43;
</programlisting>
</para>
<sect2 xml:id="sec-dnscrypt-proxy-forwarder-dsnmasq">
<title>dnsmasq</title>
<para>
<programlisting>
{
<xref linkend="opt-services.dnsmasq.enable"/> = true;
<xref linkend="opt-services.dnsmasq.servers"/> = [ "127.0.0.1#43" ];
}
</programlisting>
</para>
</sect2>
<sect2 xml:id="sec-dnscrypt-proxy-forwarder-unbound">
