Using Custom Device Names

    If you directly use the service’s listening address, such as:

    • tls://xxxxxxxx.adguardprivate.com
    • https://xxxxxxxx.adguardprivate.com/dns-query

    The IP shown in the Client Rankings in the backend will be the cluster IP of the load balancer, which is meaningless to users and does not distinguish between different devices.

    Client Rankings

    You can identify different devices by using extended domain names and adding URL paths.

    Custom Client Name

    • DoT uses the extended domain name method, such as tls://device1.xxxxxxxx.adguardprivate.com
    • DoH uses the method of adding a URL path, such as https://xxxxxxxx.adguardprivate.com/dns-query/device2

    Note:

    • When setting up on Android devices, you do not need to enter the protocol prefix tls://, just enter device1.xxxxxxxx.adguardprivate.com
    • For Apple devices, enter the client ID in the setup guide, download the configuration file to set up, no manual input is required

    Apple Device Setup Guide

    All devices of a personal service share the service’s query limit of 30 requests per second.
