Custom CA for TLS doesn't work with DNS

I created a custom CA to generate TLS certificates for some services installed on a server I have. I installed the Root CA on both my Mac and iPhone. Everything works fine in Safari with HTTPS, but when I use the certificate with a DNS over TLS server, my devices don’t consider it safe. On my Mac, I manually installed the certificate, and it works. Is it possible to install just the Root CA?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 15.6
