Specify Upstream DNS Port in DNSFilter/Director Settings?

Is it possible to specify a port number when configuring custom DNS servers in DNSFilter/Director?

I'm exploring running ctrld (https://github.com/Control-D-Inc/ctrld) to get around the DNSFilter/Director limitation of not being able to encrypt DNS traffic by sending the traffic to ctrld first and then onwards to the upstream servers. Just trying to figure out if I need seperate IPs for each ctrld listener or if DNSFilter/Director supports port numbers I can just use those instead.

Thanks,
Harry

Don't think so. You could try and set up some custom NAT rules to change the ports but that is getting pretty messy. Separate IPs probably easier.
