DNS Server on UDP and TCP |
||
Checks if the remote DNS servers answers on TCP too Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment A DNS server is running on this port but it only answers to UDP requests. This means that TCP requests are blocked by a firewall. This configuration is not RFC-compliant. Contrary to common belief, TCP transport is not restricted to zone transfers (AXFR) : - answers bigger than 512 bytes are always transmitted over TCP. - for all other requests, UDP is only 'preferred' for performance reasons. i.e. RFC1035 (STD0013) does not forbid a DNS client from issuing its queries directly over TCP. ** If you are sure that your DNS server will never return ** answers bigger than 512 bytes and that the client ** software prefers UDP (which is nearly certain), you may ** disregard this message. Read RFC1035 (STD0013) for more information. Network Security Threat Level: None Networks Security ID: Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: This script is Copyright (C) 2005 Michel Arboi |
