    Roaming Client Frequently Asked Questions

    What is a Roaming Client?

    A Roaming Client is a lightweight software agent that runs in the background on a device. It ensures all DNS requests are sent to DNSFilter for filtering and embeds device identity in those requests, allowing for granular policy enforcement and reporting. Its lightweight design ensures it won’t interfere with other security tools, making it an ideal complement to broader security strategies.

    Why should I use Roaming Clients?

    Roaming Clients provide security beyond the office network. They allow IT teams to enforce policies on individual devices, maintain protection outside of corporate firewalls, and gain deep visibility into device-level internet activity—all without impacting performance.

    How do I deploy Roaming Clients?

    Installing Roaming Clients is quick and flexible. They can be deployed individually or at scale through an MDM or RMM solution, making it easy for organizations to implement enterprise-wide protection in minutes. Learn more in our Help Center.
