phantomd

A lightweight, modular DNS proxy with filtering and secure upstream support.

✨ Features

• Supports multiple DNS protocols:
  • UDP
  • TCP
  • DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH)
  • DNS-over-TLS (DoT)
  • DNS-over-QUIC (DoQ, currently experimental)
• Configurable via plain .conf files (no heavy configs).
• Filtering system:
  • Blocklists
• Minimal dependencies — runs on low-resource servers (tested on an Intel Core Duo with 3 GB RAM)

💡 Installation

• Run the installer file of the version you want to install. The installer is interactive and will guide you through the installation process.

🔒 Security Notes

• By default, phantomd only forwards DNS traffic.
• You can integrate it with hostapd by enabling the DHCP server in the config, allowing Phantomd to act as a network-level DNS filter. (recommended)

🛠️ Development

• Python 3.10+ recommended.
• Built with asyncio for concurrency.

🗺️ Roadmap

• Full DoQ support
• Config reloading without restart
• Optional web dashboard
• Preventing DNS leaking at network level
