Once installed, [configure your router to have **DHCP clients use the Pi as their DNS server**](http://pi-hole.net/faq/can-i-set-the-pi-hole-to-be-the-dns-server-at-my-router-so-i-dont-have-to-change-settings-for-my-devices/) and then any device that connects to your network will have ads blocked without any further configuration.

## Technical Details
|
||||
|
||||
The Pi-hole is an **advertising-aware DNS/Web server**. If an ad domain is queried, a small Web page or GIF is delivered in place of the advertisement. You can also [replace ads with any image you want](http://pi-hole.net/faq/is-it-possible-to-change-the-blank-page-that-takes-place-of-the-ads-to-something-else/) since it is just a simple Webpage taking place of the ads.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Other Operating Systems
|
||||
|
||||
This script will work for other UNIX-like systems with some slight **modifications**. As long as you can install `dnsmasq` and a Webserver, it should work OK. The automated install is only for a clean install of a Debian family or Fedora based system, such as the Raspberry Pi. If there are other platforms you'd like supported, let us know.
|
||||
|
||||
### Gravity
|
||||
|
||||
The [gravity.sh](https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/blob/master/gravity.sh) does most of the magic. The script pulls in ad domains from many sources and compiles them into a single list of [over 1.6 million entries](http://jacobsalmela.com/block-millions-ads-network-wide-with-a-raspberry-pi-hole-2-0) (if you decide to use the [mahakala list](https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/commit/963eacfe0537a7abddf30441c754c67ca1e40965)).
