About Port 53

DNS translates human-readable domain names into IP addresses. Port 53 handles both TCP and UDP DNS queries, with UDP being used for standard queries and TCP for zone transfers and large responses.

Security NotesOpen DNS resolvers can be exploited for DNS amplification DDoS attacks. Implement rate limiting and restrict recursive queries to authorized clients only.
