> Hello All,

> I recently set up a second Linux box running TNOS and have them connected
> with ethernet cards. I have established an AXIP link between the two TNOS
> and all appears to work fine. PC2 uses PC1 as its default route. I have
> noticed that the Linux side of PC2 is sending out UDP frames to various
> addresses for port 53. This appears to be a waste of bandwidth on my RF
> link to my gateway and the Linux side of PC1 does not send these frames.

> Just what is port 53 and why does my second Linux box want to send frames
> to addresses using this port number.

> Also, how can I turn it off?
