any requests

[hugo hugoo]

All,
 
Can anyone explain me the purpose of ANY requests sent to cache dns servers?
I plan to block these kind of requests on the dns cache servers in order to avoid any amplification attack.
But I was wondering if complaints can come if I do such limitation.
 
Thanks in advance for your help.
 
Hugo,
