## Advanced usage
WiFi CLI MacOS also supplies commands for enabling and disabling [Argo Tunnel (cloudflared)](https://developers.cloudflare.com/argo-tunnel/)
Argo Tunnel is a Cloudflare tool which (amongst other things) can be used to proxy DNS over SSL:
```sh
brew install cloudflare/cloudflare/cloudflared
```
WiFi CLI MacOS makes enabling/disabling Argo Tunnel a little easier, the
`wifi cf on/off/r` commands start/stop/restart
[the homebrew service](https://github.com/cloudflare/homebrew-cloudflare/pull/3)
and toggle your DNS servers between localhost and network defaults
