Hi ML Yeah I can understand. Even DNSSEC will have issues with it which makes me worry about rule even today. On Wed, Dec 11, 2013 at 11:49 PM, ML <ml@kenweb.org> wrote:

I am sure I am not first person experiencing this issue. Curious to hear how you are managing it. Also under what circumstances I can get a legitimate TCP query on port 53 whose reply exceeds a basic limit of less then 1000 bytes?
I'm not a DNS guru so I don't have an exact answer. However my gut feeling is that putting in a place a rule to drop or rate limit DNS replies greater than X bytes is probably going to come back to bite you in the future.
No one can predict the future of what will constitute legitimate DNS traffic.
