Yes that is right and no i did not check the packets, but what else send ipfire over UDP Port 53 to one of 13 root DNS server ? I recognized this behavior for the first time, so for a long time this connections were made without my knowing. anyway…

So if now they are blocked, it means nothing for the past, BUT ….. I have found a very nice feature for unbound and will tell the story [here](https://community.ipfire.org/t/how-to-disable-ipv6/15505/23) a little further.
