> DNS Lookup utility.

|
|
|
- Lookup the IP(s) associated with a hostname (A records):
|
|
|
|
`dig +short {{hostname.com}}`
|
|
|
|
- Lookup the mail server(s) associated with a given domain name (MX record):
|
|
|
|
`dig +short {{hostname.com}} MX`
|
|
|
|
- Get all types of records for a given domain name:
|
|
|
|
`dig {{hostname.com}} ANY`
|
|
|
|
- Specify an alternate DNS server to query (8.8.8.8 is google's public DNS):
|
|
|
|
`dig @{{8.8.8.8}} {{hostname.com}}`
|
|
|
|
- Perform a reverse DNS lookup on an IP address (PTR record):
|
|
|
|
`dig -x {{8.8.8.8}}`
|
|
|
|
- Find authoritative name servers for the zone and display SOA records:
|
|
|
|
`dig +nssearch {{hostname.com}}`
|
|
|
|
- Perform iterative queries and display the entire trace path to resolve a domain name:
|
|
|
|
`dig +trace {{hostname.com}}`
