DNSInterceptionChecksEnabled

DNS interception checks enabled

Supported on:

  • Chrome (Windows) since version 80

Description:

This policy configures a local switch that can be used to disable DNS interception checks. The checks attempt to discover whether the browser is behind a proxy that redirects unknown host names.

This detection may not be necessary in an enterprise environment where the network configuration is known, since it causes some amount of DNS and HTTP traffic on start-up and each DNS configuration change.

When this policy is not set, or is enabled, the DNS interception checks are performed. When explicitly disabled, they're not.

true = Perform DNS interception checks
false = Do not perform DNS interception checks

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.
