How does hypixel have their website and minecraft server on their root domain? (I would like to do something similar)

Blisterexe@lemmy.zip to Selfhosted@lemmy.world – 55 points –

Hypixel.net is both their website and mc server adress.

Is it just that https is on port 443 and minecraft is on port 25565?

And if that is the case, can i do something similar by making a reverse proxy have two seperate server blocks for the one domain, with different ports?

DNS

You have DNS listening on UDP and TCP... for DNS?

Iol, lol.

What's there to laugh about? DNS protocol uses both ports: TCP for zone transfer and UDP for queries.

Yes I have a DNS service listening on both UDP and TCP to respond to DNS queries from clients using the standard DNS port; crazy me. 🤪
