Indicates use of a public DNS. |
If there are errors accessing servers through the system DNS, the application uses a public DNS. This is needed for updating application databases and maintaining device security. The application will use the following public DNSes in this order:
The application's requests may contain domain addresses and the user's external IP address, since the application establishes a TCP/UDP connection with the DNS server. This information is necessary, for example, to check the certificate of a web resource when interacting via HTTPS. If the application is using a public DNS server, data processing rules are governed by the Privacy Policy of the corresponding service. If you need to block the application from using a public DNS server, contact Technical Support for a private patch. |
The [Network] section contains the following settings: |
||
|
A mark in the iptables rules for forwarding traffic to the application for processing by Web Threat Protection tasks. You may need to change this mark if a device with the application runs other software that uses the ninth bit of the TCP packet mask, and a conflict occurs. |
A decimal value or hexadecimal number with the prefix 0x. Default value: 0x100. |
|
A mark in the iptables rules for forwarding traffic to the application for processing by Network Threat Protection tasks. You may need to change this mark if a device with the application runs other software that uses the ninth bit of the TCP packet mask, and a conflict occurs. |
