What Hacker News says
6 sourcesNot at the moment; to achieve this, you typically put it behind something like dnsproxy [1][2].
I have done this on my router, along with a couple firewall rules to prevent plaintext DNS queries leaking out of the WAN port. dnsmasq is configured to talk to dnsproxy, and dnsproxy is configured to use DNS over TLS with 1.1.1.1 [3]

In Critical Cache Poisoning Vulnerability in DnsmasqNot sure if this is the right place to ask, but I've got a semi-obscure DNS question.
I'd like to use Cloudflare's Zero Trust DNS filtering with DoH by running a DNS proxy on my network.
I can get this to work great with github.com/adguardTeam/dnsproxy (running on a Pi 4B) but what I would really like is to have different devices (based on their IP on the network) get their queries forwarded onto a different DoH upstream.
Is this possible in a simple way?

Currently using dnsproxy [1] now since DNS profile does not work on my Mac Pro.
