How to Enable DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) in Mozilla Firefox
Posted onAugust 8, 2018AuthorTrishaLeave a comment
When you visit a website, the web browser first translates the domain name (such as yahoo.com) to the IP address using the DNS server configured in your operating system. We actually offer a free tool Public DNS Server Tool that helps you quickly configure your Windows system to use one of the publicly available DNS servers.
But now Firefox browser (starting from version 62) has come up with a new feature called Trusted Recursive Resolver (TRR) which sets Firefox to use a secure DNS server of its own. For this feature, all the DNS resolution requests are sent over HTTPS and this is why only a DNS over HTTPS (DoH) complaint server can be used for this feature.
Here is how you can enable DoH in Firefox browser:
Type about:config in the address bar and press Enter.
When warning appears, click on the I accept the risk button.
In the search box type trr to find the settings we want.
