Yes, it does, see SRV records.
- friendzis 4y agoI meant DNS A/AAAA queries with preconfigured/well-known ports being the default. While some applications/protocols/services do use some port discovery mechanism, I would argue it is nowhere close to being de-facto standard.
- bewo001 4y agoSo true, but how many developers know about them? The API situation does not help either.
