The reply always has an empty answer section. The port and transport are included in the additional
|
|
|
|
|
section as a SRV record, transport can be "tcp" or "udp".

If CoreDNS can't find a Corefile on startup this is the *default* middleware that gets loaded. As
|
|
|
|
|
such it can be used to check that CoreDNS is responding to queries. Other than that this middleware
|
|
|
|
|
is of limited use in production.
