Monitoring connections

[scrutinizer11]

Hello,

Writing from iOS 15 here. How do I monitor connections? Does it generate logs?

Hi,

First of all, the DNS client runs on the OS, not on DNSecure. DNSecure merely activates the OS's DoT/DoH client. Therefore, we can't observe its connections within the app.

One approach is to capture packets across the entire OS using rvictl and WireShark or tcpdump.

I learned today, but you can monitor DNS queries on iOS/iPadOS with Proxygen only if you are using a DoH server. (Please note that some DoH server domains like dns.google and one.one.one.one are excluded by default. You can remove them in Proxygen's settings.)
