AdGuard Home is an open-source, network-wide ad and tracker blocking DNS server with a web dashboard, parental controls, and DNS-over-HTTPS/TLS support. This guide deploys AdGuard Home using Docker Compose with Traefik handling automatic HTTPS for the dashboard, after freeing the system's port 53. By the end, you'll have AdGuard Home resolving and filtering DNS queries with an HTTPS-secured admin console.
Free Port 53
Ubuntu's systemd-resolved binds port 53 by default. Release it before deploying.
1. Stop and disable systemd-resolved:
$ sudo systemctl stop systemd-resolved
