Mac Roaming Client

RC Release Channels

07/16 July 16 – macOS Roaming Client v2.4.3 Beta

Version 2.4.3 of the macOS Roaming Client is now available on the
Beta channel
. To install, download the latest beta installer from the dashboard under
Deployments → Roaming Clients → Beta Channel
.
🪲
Stability & Connectivity Fixes
  • Fixed an issue where device hostnames were not automatically reported to the dashboard on fresh installs of v2.4.2, causing devices to appear with no hostname in the device list
  • Fixed an issue where reinstalling or upgrading the agent could create duplicate device entries in the dashboard
  • Resolved an issue where reassigning a device to a different site by changing the Site Key did not correctly update the device's site assignment and policy in the dashboard — the device now registers to the new site as expected on both live key changes and clean reinstalls
  • Fixed an issue where Travel Wi-Fi configuration settings (
    ALLOW_MANUAL_CAPTIVE_PORTAL
    ,
    ALLOW_PROXY_DISABLE
    , and
    CAPTIVE_PORTAL_DELAY
    ) were silently ignored when set in the
    dns_agent.conf
    file during CLI installation. These settings are now correctly applied on install

Active Directory Sync Tool

Identities Sync Tool

07/15 July 15 - Identities Connections Release

Identities
is now available in the DNSFilter dashboard. This unified framework manages users, collections, and policy assignment across your organization — designed to handle the scale and complexity of modern enterprise and MSP environments.
✨
What's New
Direct Microsoft Entra Integration
– Connect your Entra ID directory directly to DNSFilter without the AD Sync Tool. Users and groups sync automatically via SCIM provisioning, with full support for Entra Hybrid environments where Active Directory identities flow through Entra.
Rebuilt Collections
– Collections have been redesigned to support large directories, multiple identity sources, and high-complexity group structures — reducing sync failures, stale data, and manual grouping overhead.
Unified Identities Hierarchy
– A new Identities view gives administrators a clear, consolidated picture of all identity sources, user objects, and Collections, and how policies are applied across them. Policy assignment is consistent and visible regardless of where identities originate.
MSP-Level Identity Management
– Users, Collections, and Identity Connections are now manageable directly from the MSP dashboard. Previously, AD Sync Tool configuration required navigating into each organization individually — MSPs can now set up and manage synced policy assignment across their organizations from a single view.
What This Means for You
  • No more dependency on the AD Sync Tool for Entra environments
  • Reliable sync at scale for large and complex directories
  • A consistent, predictable path for policy assignment across all identity sources
  • Reduced operational overhead for enterprise IT teams and MSPs managing cloud-first identity strategies

iOS Roaming Client

RC Release Channels

7/14 July 14 - iOS Roaming Client v1.4.4

A new version of the iOS Roaming Client is now available in the App Store and will begin rolling out to devices via Apple auto-updates today.
This release includes improvements to reliability, registration behavior, and MDM management.
✨
What's New
  • Improved MDM Support
    User name, hostname, and device tag changes in the configuration profile now sync to the Dashboard without requiring a Site Secret Key change
  • Automatic Site Reassignment from MDM
    A Site Secret Key change in the configuration profile now re-associates the device to the new site automatically, enabling fleet migrations without reinstalls or policy gaps
  • Stronger Admin PIN Protection
    Progressive delays are now applied between incorrect admin PIN attempts, making automated guessing impractical while keeping legitimate retries fast
  • Refreshed Branding
    App icons, visuals, and UI elements have been updated to match current DNSFilter branding
🪲
Bug Fixes
  • AirPrint and printer discovery
    Single-label and DNS-SD queries now route to Local Resolvers when configured, so discovered printers appear reliably while the Roaming Client is active
  • More reliable filtering after login
    Configuration now refreshes on a short interval instead of on every DNS query, fixing a brief window where a device could show blocked content right after login
  • Diagnostic logging on by default
    New installs now capture debug logs from the first run so Support can diagnose early issues; users can still disable it in the app

What's New
CyberSight Data Export
– CyberSight Data Export is now available to all customers utilizing Data Export, enabling reliable export of CyberSight data to your SIEM of choice alongside existing DNS log exports.
Clearer Auto-Registration Duration for Mobile Roaming Client
– The Automatic Registration setting now displays its 7-day duration and an explicit "Ends on [date]" status when enabled, replacing the previous helper text for easier at-a-glance visibility.
🪲
Bug Fixes
Pending Remote Uninstall Persistence
– Resolved an issue where restarting an offline Roaming Client's services could cancel a queued remote uninstall before it took effect. Pending uninstalls now persist correctly through agent restarts.
CyberSight Activity Logs Deep-Link Loading
– Resolved an issue where the Activity Logs page would hang indefinitely when opened via the "View Activity Logs" link from the Top Websites card in Activity Overview. The page now loads filtered results reliably.
Plus general performance and stability improvements across the dashboard.

🛠️ Improvements
Roaming Client Download Links Now Version-Specific

✨What's New
DNSFilter Partner Portal Revamp
– The DNSFilter Partner Portal has been relaunched with a modernized experience. Partners access the portal by verifying their company email via a magic link — no account creation or SSO required. Lesson progress is saved locally on your device.
🪲 Bug Fixes
  • CyberSight Client and User Cards
    – Resolved an issue where client and user detail cards in CyberSight displayed raw ID values instead of human-readable names.
  • Add User Drawer Organization Access Field
    – Resolved an issue where the Organization Access restriction field appeared empty in the Add User drawer, causing confusion about what access level would be granted.
  • Improved Error Handling for Invalid API Privacy Mode Values
    – Resolved an issue where passing an invalid
    privacy_mode
    value to
    PATCH /v1/msps/:id
    returned an HTTP 500 server error instead of a structured 422 validation response. The endpoint now returns a clear, consistent JSON error response when an invalid value is provided.
  • IPv6-Only DDNS Hostname Resolution for Sites
    – Resolved an issue where DDNS hostnames that resolve exclusively to IPv6 addresses could not be added to a Site due to a validation error. These hostnames now resolve correctly during setup without requiring manual workarounds.

What's New
CyberSight Agent Compatibility Warning
– A warning banner now appears in CyberSight when the Roaming Client version on a device is incompatible with the current CyberSight feature set, prompting users to upgrade before relying on CyberSight data.
🛠️
Improvements
UI Polish Across the Platform
– Several pages have been updated to align with current design standards; standardized pagination across data grids; and visual consistency improvements to banners, buttons, and icons throughout the app.
Dark Mode Refinements
– Resolved a styling issue where copy icons on the DNSFilter Resolvers page did not render correctly in dark mode.
🪲
Bug Fixes
Block Page Editor Button Alignment
– Resolved a layout issue where action buttons in the Block Page editor were not correctly positioned.
Install Relay Page Navigation
– Restored a missing Back button on the Install Relay page, allowing users to return to the previous step without using the browser back button.

Mac Roaming Client

RC Release Channels

06/23 June 23 - macOS Roaming Client v2.4.2 Production

Version 2.4.2 of the macOS Roaming Client is now available on the
Production
channel. To install, download the latest production installer from the dashboard under
Deployments → Roaming Clients
.
✨ What's New
Component Version Mismatch Detection
– The Roaming Client now detects when the menu bar app, system extension, and daemon are running mismatched versions — a scenario that can cause features to behave unexpectedly after upgrades or MDM-managed installs. When a mismatch is detected, users are alerted and can resolve it directly from the menu.
🪲 Stability & Connectivity Fixes
  • Fixed an issue where the agent could fail to start correctly on macOS boot due to a stale local DNS configuration file from a previous session, causing it to get stuck and never recover without a manual restart
  • Addressed an intermittent offline issue where some endpoints could go offline after waking from sleep or switching networks and require a reboot to recover
  • Corrected a regression where Travel Wi-Fi mode would disappear from the menu after rebooting with Wi-Fi disabled, on machines with certain network extensions present
  • Restored the allow_proxy_disable configuration setting, which was silently dropped when upgrading from 2.3.x to 2.4.x — the setting is now correctly carried forward
  • The menu bar icon now correctly shows the offline state when the device has no network connection, without surfacing a spurious "Fix Installation Issues" warning that doesn't apply in that context
