Registry Access Management supports both cloud and on-prem registries. This feature operates at the DNS level and therefore is compatible with all registries. You can add any hostname or domain name you’d like to include in the list of allowed registries. However, if the registry redirects to other domains such as `s3.amazon.com`, then you must add those domains to the list.

## Caveats

71
There are certain limitations when using Registry Access Management:
61
72
62
-
- Windows image pulls and image builds are not restricted by default. For Registry Access Management to take effect on Windows Container mode, you must allow the Windows Docker daemon to use Docker Desktop's internal proxy by selecting the [Use proxy for Windows Docker daemon](/manuals/desktop/settings-and-maintenance/settings.md#proxies) setting.
63
-
- Builds such as `docker buildx` using a Kubernetes driver are not restricted
64
-
- Builds such as `docker buildx` using a custom docker-container driver are not restricted
65
-
- Blocking is DNS-based; you must use a registry's access control mechanisms to distinguish between “push” and “pull”
66
-
- WSL 2 requires at least a 5.4 series Linux kernel (this does not apply to earlier Linux kernel series)
67
-
- Under the WSL 2 network, traffic from all Linux distributions is restricted (this will be resolved in the updated 5.15 series Linux kernel)
68
-
- Images pulled by Docker Desktop when Docker Debug or Kubernetes is enabled, are not restricted by default even if Docker Hub is blocked by RAM.
69
-
70
-
Also, Registry Access Management operates on the level of hosts, not IP addresses. Developers can bypass this restriction within their domain resolution, for example by running Docker against a local proxy or modifying their operating system's `sts` file. Blocking these forms of manipulation is outside the remit of Docker Desktop.
73
+
- You can add up to 100 registries/domains.
74
+
- Windows image pulls and image builds are not restricted by default. For
75
+
Registry Access Management to take effect on Windows Container mode, you must
76
+
allow the Windows Docker daemon to use Docker Desktop's internal proxy by
77

setting.
