<br> ### How do I configure Windows Defender Application Guard to work with my network proxy (IP-Literal Addresses)?
Windows Defender Application Guard requires proxies to have a symbolic name, not just an IP address. IP-Literal proxy settings such as `192.168.1.4:81` can be annotated as `itproxy:81` or using a record such as `P19216810010` for a proxy with an IP address of `192.168.100.10`. This applies to Windows 10 Enterprise edition, 1709 or higher. These would be for the proxy policies under Network Isolation in Group Policy or Intune.

<br> ### What is the WDAGUtilityAccount local account?
This account is part of Application Guard beginning with Windows 10 version 1709 (Fall Creators Update). This account remains disabled until Application Guard is enabled on your device. This item is integrated to the OS and is not considered as a threat/virus/malware.
| | | ### How do I trust a subdomain in my site list?

If you would like to evaluate this feature on a deployment of Windows 10 Enterprise, version 1803, please contact Microsoft and well work with you to enable the feature. |
<br> To trust a subdomain, you must precede your domain with two dots, for example: `..contoso.com` will ensure `mail.contoso.com` or `news.contoso.com` are trusted. The first dot represents the strings for the subdomain name (mail or news), the second dot recognizes the start of the domain name (`contoso.com`). This prevents sites such as `fakesitecontoso.com` from being trusted.
### Are there differences between using Application Guard on Windows Pro vs Windows Enterprise?
| | | When using Windows Pro and Windows Enterprise, you will have access to using Application Guard's Standalone Mode. However, when using Enterprise you will have access to Application Guard's Enterprise-Managed Mode. This mode has some extra features that the Standalone Mode does not. For more information, see [Prepare to install Windows Defender Application Guard](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-application-guard/install-wd-app-guard).

<br> ### Is there a size limit to the domain lists that I need to configure?
Yes, both the Enterprise Resource domains hosted in the cloud and the Domains categorized as both work and personal have a 16383B limit.
