Open the Network and Internet page.

On the next page, in the DNS Server Mapping section, click the Change button.
Select Manual from the drop-down list at the top of the page.
Specify the addresses of the DNS servers supported by the DoH using the reference table below.
Select Encryption only (DNS over HTTPS) from the Preferred DNS Encryption and Alternate DNS Encryption drop-down menus.
If your port supports IPv6, repeat the previous steps to configure it.
Finally, click on the Save button.
