if
your dns server is answering requests for internal clients only, then you do not
need to create any additional rules or open ports, the default rule already
allows this outbound dns traffic. if you want your dns to answer external
requests, then yes you need to allow for it.
all
this assuming the server is behind the firewall (not in the
dmz)
