BuiltInDnsClientEnabled

Use built-in DNS client

Supported on:

  • Chrome (Windows) since version 25

Description:

This policy controls which software stack is used to communicate with the DNS server: the Operating System DNS client, or Samsung Browser's built-in DNS client. This policy does not affect which DNS servers are used: if, for example, the operating system is configured to use an enterprise DNS server, that same server would be used by the built-in DNS client. It also does not control if DNS-over-HTTPS is used; Samsung Browser will always use the built-in resolver for DNS-over-HTTPS requests. Please see the DnsOverHttpsMode policy for information on controlling DNS-over-HTTPS.

If this policy is set to Enabled or is left unset, the built-in DNS client will be used.

If this policy is set to Disabled, the built-in DNS client will only be used when DNS-over-HTTPS is in use.

true = Always use the built-in DNS client
false = Never use the built-in DNS client
not set = Always use the built-in DNS client

Supported features:

  • Applied to browser without restart. Note that some ongoing tasks may not be affected.
  • Applied at Samsung Browser level, cannot be set by Cloud user policies.
