Post subject:  IPv6 DNS query/response question
I've got IPv6 set up with an HE tunnel and I'm running NSD 3.2.4 on both my Linodes with nameservers ns1.jonfoster.org and ns2.jonfoster.org.

NSD is binding to udp/udp6 port 53 and tcp/tcp6 port 53.

My firewall is open for port 53 in both iptables and ip6tables for both udp and tcp.

I've got wireshark watching the DNS exchange and I see the standard DNS query/response on IPv6 but there is an additional line in the wireshark data that I don't understand:

Code:
958 202716.271255 2001:470:0:45::2 -> 2001:470:1f05:c23::a1 DNS Standard query AAAA devjonfos.net
959 202716.271513 2001:470:1f04:c23::2 -> 2001:470:0:45::2 DNS Standard query response AAAA 2001:470:1f05:e66::b1
960 202716.271967 2001:470:0:45::2 -> 2001:470:1f04:c23::2 ICMPv6 Unreachable (Port unreachable)


Which port is unreachable? Does this have something to do with DNS security?

Here's the raw data:

Code:
958 202716.271255 2001:470:0:45::2 -> 2001:470:1f05:c23::a1 DNS Standard query AAAA devjonfos.net

This pattern repeats with other IPv6 DNS exchanges from other IPv6 addresses.

I don't know if this is helpful or not, but I got this when I did a quick test:

Code:
reply from unexpected source: 2001:470:1f04:c23::2#53, expected 2001:470:1f05:c23::a1#53


I'm guessing the reply is not coming from the destination the query was sent to.

Ahh, okay...so maybe it's the HE tunnel address that others see as opposed to the actual address that is set in the quad-A record and that might be causing the unreachable port messages.

BTW, were you actually able to get the quad-A record for ns1.jonfoster.org?

Yes, both A and AAAA records.

Code:
Default server: ns1.jonfoster.org.
Address: 2001:470:1f05:c23::a1#53
Default server: ns1.jonfoster.org.
Address: 173.230.148.242#53
> ns1.jonfoster.org.
;; reply from unexpected source: 2001:470:1f04:c23::2#53, expected 2001:470:1f05:c23::a1#53
Server:         ns1.jonfoster.org.
Address:        173.230.148.242#53

ns1.jonfoster.org       has AAAA address 2001:470:1f05:c23::a1

dnsmasq will, occasionally, try every resolver in its configuration for a question. The first one to answer gets nothing back, and the remainders get ICMP Port Unreachable (since dnsmasq closed up shop and moved on). That isn't what's happening here, but worth noting in the future...I just discovered this since I had six resolvers in my dnsmasq configuration.
