DNS over QUIC (DoQ)

Doggo supports DNS over QUIC (DoQ), a relatively new protocol that enhances security through data encryption and improves internet performance by utilizing QUIC. QUIC, or Quick UDP Internet Connections, is a network protocol developed by Google. It reduces latency and speeds up data transmission compared to the traditional TCP protocol.

Using DoQ with Doggo

To use DoQ, specify a DoQ server URL prefixed with @quic://:

Terminal window
doggo mrkaran.dev @quic://dns.adguard.com

Available DoQ Providers

As DoQ is a relatively new protocol, fewer providers currently support it compared to DoH or DoT. Here are some known DoQ providers:

  1. AdGuard: @quic://dns.adguard.com
  2. Cloudflare: @quic://cloudflare-dns.com

Benefits of Using DoQ

  • Reduces connection establishment time compared to TCP-based protocols
  • Improves performance on unreliable networks
