Do not forward watchdog ping packets

Open julian-klode opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

The watchdog sends empty UDP packets, and the DNS packet proxy forwards these. We should not be forwarding them, it's kind of pointless.

This has no effect in practice, but it's a bit ugly. The existing empty packet forwarding code exists for Firefox - I think it can either be dropped now or should at least be restricted to the port firefox uses, and DNS66 gets its own port to send to that we drop packets for.
