Does Cloudflare support DoH?

How do I enable DoH?

Is DoH faster than DNS?

After all, there's more data and web traffic to encrypt and decrypt, so it's natural for secure communication to take slightly longer than unsecured communication. Compared to other DNS encryption protocols, DoH has one of the longest page load and wait times.

Is DoH a TCP or UDP?

DOH uses TCP port 443, allowing both web and DNS transactions to take place within a single HTTP/2 session if the server is set up to handle both forms of service.

Can you DDoS through Cloudflare?

Cloudflare provides unmetered and unlimited distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) Open external link protection to all customers on all plans and services. The protection is enabled by Cloudflare's Autonomous DDoS Protection Edge, which automatically detects and mitigates DDoS attacks.

What is the difference between DoT and DoH?

DoT secures this information with Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption by adding privacy and preventing threat actors from spoofing traffic or hijacking DNS from the local network. DoH encrypts DNS requests and responses with the HTTP protocols.

Can I use Cloudflare as a proxy?
