Btw, vou published it as a service in the wiki as a DNS server:
Various Operators/DNS/ dns-mdc.ampr.org (44.60.44.3)
If you don't plan to honor the service, remove that entry. Routers usually don't have zone setups to be able to differentiate the requests, so you need to deal with that traffic.
And if you accept the request and respond, at least it would not be repeated until the expiry of its record TTL (and MT does it correctly by caching the response).
Basically, by denying the request, you make it worse, since the request will be repeated endlessly.

It is, if one sets 44.60.44.3 as a DNS server on any router. It does not need to be MikroTik.

All,
Can the operator of 44.178.0.0/30 contact me off thread and/or reconfigure their gateway's public 93.123.xxx.xxx address - as to stop sending incessant DNS requests. This traffic is blocked at my firewall and using the resources of AMPRGW.
As an FYI and reminder, operators should use 44net IPs to access the DNS service.

Is this the normal behavior of a MikroTik device?
