* Finally, across our DNS infrastructure we have deprecated ANY queries and have proposed to the IETF to restrict ANY queries to only
* authorized parties. By neutering ANY, we've significantly reduced the maximum size of responses even for zone files that need to be
* large due to a large number of records.
*
*
*
* ALSO: see LINK-LOCAL MULTICAST NAME RESOLUTION
* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link-Local_Multicast_Name_Resolution
*
* In responding to queries, responders listen on UDP port 5355 on the following link-scope Multicast address:
*
* IPv4 - 224.0.0.252, MAC address of 01-00-5E-00-00-FC
* IPv6 - FF02:0:0:0:0:0:1:3 (this notation can be abbreviated as FF02::1:3), MAC address of 33-33-00-01-00-03
* The responders also listen on TCP port 5355 on the unicast address that the host uses to respond to queries.
