Vlad Grigorescu commented on BIT-1460:
--------------------------------------

The issue here is src/analyzer/protocol/dns/DNS.cc lines 58-68:

{quote}
        // There is a great deal of non-DNS traffic that runs on port 53.
        // This should weed out most of it.
        if ( dns_max_queries > 0 && msg.qdcount > dns_max_queries )
                {
                analyzer->ProtocolViolation("DNS_Conn_count_too_large");
                analyzer->Weird("DNS_Conn_count_too_large");
                EndMessage(&msg);
                return 0;
                }
{quote}

topic/vladg/bit-1460 makes dns_max_queries redef-able, and bumps up the limit 
from 5 to 25.

Since multicast is so chatty, it might make sense to special case it and allow 
for a higher limit. That being said, I'm not sure there's much of a downside to 
setting the max a bit higher.
