![]() ![]() But for learning purposes, I wanted to get my hands dirty running this in Kubernetes. Sure, another option could have been to set up a publicly-reachable VPN Server in the private network and instruct it to configure devices such that they use the internal AdGuard Home as DNS Server. Instead, running it in the existing Kubernetes cluster would allow to benefit from automated TLS certificate management already in place and leverage existing nodes. I therefore set out to migrate AdGuard Home to a public server, ideally running in my existing Kubernetes cluster because I did not want to rent an additional server dedicated to this. ![]() Last year, folks at AdGuard published a blog post on how to run and operate Adguard Home on a public server. So I wanted to benefit from this even on the go, regardless of the network I or any other family member is connected to. This has been running successfully for years now in my private home network setup. The Domain Name System (DNS) is a protocol allowing to translate human-readable domain names into IP addresses.Īfter experimenting with Adguard Home and other alternatives like Pi-Hole, I sticked to the former for its simplicity of use and overall resource usage. AdGuard Home provides a network-wide ads and tracking blocker, while also allowing to save some bandwidth usage (and indirectly CPU / memory consumption) while browsing.Īs a reminder, the Dynamic Host and Configuration Protocol (DHCP) allows to automatically assign IP addresses (from a range of addresses) and other configuration (like DNS servers) to devices joining a network. Since several years now, my network setup at home includes an instance of AdGuard Home running on a Raspberry Pi, and acting as both a DHCP and DNS server for all the family devices.
