NAME

Fwctl::Services::name_service - Fwctl module to handle the DNS protocol.

SYNOPSIS

    accept   name_service -src INTERNET -dst NAME_SERVER -server
    accept   name_service -src NAME_SERVER -dst INTERNET -query-port 5353

DESCRIPTION

The name_service module handles the DNS protocol. It can handle both name server and resolver configuration. When using the server option, the query can be from the port 53 (for bind 4 compatibility) and above 1024. You can use the query-port option to specify the client port.

Default is to use only ports > 1024 as client port. (Usual resolver situation.)
