The Technitium DNS console, rebuilt in Vue.

VueTechnitium is a complete, ground-up rewrite of the Technitium DNS Server web console. The same DNS engine you already trust — now with a faster, cleaner, fully reactive interface and features the classic UI never had.

Features

Built for the people who
actually run the DNS server.

VueTechnitium keeps everything the classic console can do and rethinks how it feels — then adds the things power users have been asking for.

A complete UI rewrite

Every screen rebuilt from scratch on Vue 3, Vuetify and Pinia. Reactive, quick, and consistent — no more full-page reloads, no jQuery spaghetti.

  • Vue 3 · Vuetify · Pinia
  • Reactive — no page reloads
  • Built-in light & dark themes

Everything you already manage

Full parity with the classic console — Dashboard, Zones, Cache, Allowed & Blocked, Apps, DHCP, Logs, Settings and Administration. All there, all redesigned.

  • Dashboard · Zones · Cache · DHCP
  • Apps · Logs · Settings
  • Role-based access & permissions

New power features

Things the legacy UI never had: multi-node cluster management with a node switcher on every screen, a full DNSSEC properties manager, catalog zones, personal API tokens and server-side pagination.

  • Multi-node cluster management
  • Full DNSSEC key management
  • Catalog zones · API tokens

A true drop-in

VueTechnitium talks to the exact same Technitium DNS Server API. Ship it next to the classic UI and switch between them with a single toggle — no migration, no data changes.

  • Same Technitium DNS API
  • Switch UI with one toggle
  • Zero migration, zero risk

Why VueTechnitium

Same trusted engine.
A brand-new console.

Technitium DNS Server is a fast, open-source DNS server — but its classic web console has aged. VueTechnitium keeps the engine exactly as it is and replaces only the front-end, so you get every feature you rely on with an interface that finally feels modern.

It speaks the same HTTP API, honours the same users, roles and permissions, and runs from the same server. Drop it in, flip a toggle, and your team gets a faster console — with zero risk to your DNS.

Same backend, same API — zero risk
Reactive SPA — no full-page reloads
Switch back to the classic UI anytime

Built by Honex

Everything in Technitium 15.2,
plus what we added on top.

VueTechnitium tracks Technitium DNS Server and layers on a modern console — and features the stock build simply doesn't ship.

Manage your DNS from any AI assistant

New

VueTechnitium ships a built-in Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Point Claude — or any MCP client — at the server and query records, list zones, inspect zone data and flush the cache in plain language. It's authenticated with your API token and gated by the very same permissions as the console.

New

A brand-new Vue 3 console

The classic jQuery console is replaced by a fast, reactive Vue 3 interface — served by default, with one-click switch back to the legacy UI.

New

Audit trail

Every admin action — logins and failures, logout, password & 2FA changes, API tokens, session revokes, user/group/permission edits and SSO updates — recorded, persisted to disk and browsable.

New

Per-app debug logs

Each installed DNS App's debug output is captured into its own buffer, with view, clear, enable and max-entry controls.

Tokens stay out of the URL

The console authenticates with an Authorization: Bearer header, so session tokens never land in URLs, server logs or browser history.

Cluster control in the console

Initialize, join, promote, resync and manage every node from a Cluster Management view — with a global node selector in the nav bar.

DNSSEC & catalog zones, visualised

Sign and unsign zones, roll KSK/ZSK keys, convert NSEC↔NSEC3 and manage catalog zones — all first-class in the redesigned console.
