I’d be grateful if Mikrotik could consider adding DNSCrypt urgently to the current and future versions of ROS.
DNSCrypt has been released by DYNDNS.org as open-source code and allows users to effectively wrap DNS requests to DYNDNS servers in an SSL layer. This significantly improves security for users in public networks but should also add security for businesses against eavesdropping and man-in-the-middle attacks.
Currently the only client support for DNSCrypt is an OS-X release from DYNDNS.org but as they have published the source code, it must be straightforward for Mikrotik to add this as a package option.
All of my WAN facing Mikrotik routers use DYNDNS.org as their DNS servers as this allows free and effective filtering to avoid phishing sites and illegal content (which is flexibly adjustable by the user/manager).
I’d also love RouterOS to support DNSCrypt!
Right now I have to run it locally on every machine on the network and reconfigure the network settings on every machine for every connection - which tedious and it’s easy to miss a connection or a machine and then DNS goes in the clear again… EWWW.
If I could just get it on the router as a package all that hassle wouldn’t be necessary!

It should be great. Selecting already existing DNSes like cloudns or dnscrypt.eu or opendns
(or adding ours) would be great too.
spending power and $ to have always-on an old hardware server only for dns or running the dnscrypt-proxy anywhere when we got mikrotik it’s a torture.
(Especially when there are devices that can’t support it like cellphones, or in points which you offer wifi / internet and you want all dns traffic forced to dnscrypt)
this would be Amazing if ROS supported DNSCrypt. would really open up alot of potentail buyers to ROS just for this one feature in a home router that doesnt require alot of linux+setup.
