-
- <answer>
- <para>BIND uses a random high-numbered port for outgoing
- queries. Recent versions of it choose a new, random UDP
- port for each query. This may cause problems for some
- network configurations, especially if a firewall blocks
- incoming UDP packets on particular ports. To
- get past that firewall, try the
- <literal>avoid-v4-udp-ports</literal> and
- <literal>avoid-v6-udp-ports</literal> options to avoid
- selecting random port numbers within a blocked
- range.</para>
-
- <warning>
- <para>If a port number (like 53) is specified via the
- <literal>query-source</literal> or
- <literal>query-source-v6</literal> options in
- <filename>/usr/local/etc/namedb/named.conf</filename>,
- randomized
- port selection will not be used. It is strongly
- recommended that these options not be used to specify
- fixed port numbers.</para>

- <para>Congratulations, by the way. It is good practice to
- read &man.sockstat.1; output and notice odd
- things!</para>
