When server 1 is (temporarily) unavailable, OS X will automatically switch to the next one. Using this method solved the connectivity problems i had.\r\n\r\nWhen using dnscrypt-osxclient, configuring multiple DNS servers seems not possible. I think it might be good to implement a feature to \"Automatically switch if blocked\": to switch to another Dnscrypt name server when the current one is not working..\r\n\r\nNext question would be of course, switch to which one? maybe add checkboxes?"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/alterstep/dnscrypt-osxclient/issues/comments/114094336","html_url":"https://github.com/alterstep/dnscrypt-osxclient/issues/50#issuecomment-114094336","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/alterstep/dnscrypt-osxclient/issues/50","id":114094336,"user":{"login":"jedisct1","id":124872,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/124872?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/jedisct1","html_url":"https://github.com/jedisct1","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jedisct1/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jedisct1/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jedisct1/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jedisct1/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jedisct1/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jedisct1/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jedisct1/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jedisct1/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jedisct1/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-06-22T13:03:26Z","updated_at":"2015-06-22T13:03:26Z","body":"Why use an IPv6 name server?\r\n\r\nIPv4 name servers can resolve the same things, including IPv6 addresses."}}
