DPS actually is fully supported on MAC except by docker limitation features. Despite on this, there is no additional configuration to run DPS on Mac, you can do just like on Linux.
Download the latest release, extract and run:
$ sudo ./dns-proxy-server
When running on standalone mode (not on docker container) DPS will be able to auto-configure itself as OSX default DNS,
after 5 seconds you see something like usingDnsConfigurator=DnsConfiguratorOSx at the logs.
If by some reason it doesn’t work or you want to configure it manually because are running DPS on a docker conainer, then check the instructions bellow:
To list available networks:
$ networksetup -listallnetworkservices
An asterisk (*) denotes that a network service is disabled.
USB 10/100/1000 LAN
Wi-Fi
Thunderbolt Bridge
In my case the right Network is Wi-Fi, before change anything let’s check if it has some manual
configured DNS server:
$ networksetup -getdnsservers Wi-Fi
There aren't any DNS Servers set on Wi-Fi.
If it returns some server IP then is a good idea to save it to restore the configurations later.
Let’s set DPS as the default DNS Server, you can get DPS IP by search for Starting UDP server at the starting logs,
it’s 192.168.0.14 in my case, remember you need to run DPS in port 53 as MAC doesn’t accept custom port especification.
$ networksetup -setdnsservers Wi-Fi 192.168.0.14
If you need to remove the configured DNS server then it will use your network provider DNS
$ networksetup -setdnsservers Wi-Fi Empty
See this thread with more use cases.
