1155N/A<

strong class="command">dig</
strong></

1155N/A (domain information groper) is a flexible tool
1155N/A for interrogating DNS name servers. It performs DNS lookups and
1155N/A displays the answers that are returned from the name server(s) that
0N/A were queried. Most DNS administrators use <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span> to
0N/A troubleshoot DNS problems because of its flexibility, ease of use and
0N/A clarity of output. Other lookup tools tend to have less functionality
0N/A than <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span>.
0N/A Although <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span> is normally used with
0N/A arguments, it also has a batch mode of operation for reading lookup
1155N/A requests from a file. A brief summary of its command-line arguments
1155N/A and options is printed when the <
code class="option">-h</
code> option is given.
1155N/A Unlike earlier versions, the BIND 9 implementation of
1155N/A <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span> allows multiple lookups to be issued
1400N/A Unless it is told to query a specific name server,
1400N/A <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span> will try each of the servers listed
0N/A When no command line arguments or options are given,
0N/A <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span> will perform an NS query for "." (the root).
0N/A It is possible to set per-user defaults for <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span> via
0N/A <
code class="filename">${HOME}/.digrc</
code>. This file is read and
0N/A are applied before the command line arguments.
0N/A The IN and CH class names overlap with the IN and CH top level
0N/A domains names. Either use the <
code class="option">-t</
code> and
0N/A <
code class="option">-c</
code> options to specify the type and class,
0N/A use the <
code class="option">-q</
code> the specify the domain name, or
0N/A use "IN." and "CH." when looking up these top level domains.

h2>SIMPLE USAGE</
h2>
0N/A A typical invocation of <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span> looks like:
0N/A<
pre class="programlisting"> dig @server name type </
pre>
0N/A<
div class="variablelist"><
dl>
0N/A<
dt><
span class="term"><
code class="constant">server</
code></
span></
dt>
0N/A is the name or IP address of the name server to query. This can
1155N/A address in dotted-decimal notation or an IPv6
1155N/A address in colon-delimited notation. When the supplied
1155N/A <
em class="parameter"><
code>server</
code></
em> argument is a
1155N/A <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span> resolves that name before
1155N/A server. If no <
em class="parameter"><
code>server</
code></
em>
0N/A <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span> consults <
code class="filename">/
etc/
resolv.conf</
code>
0N/A and queries the name servers listed there. The reply from the
0N/A server that responds is displayed.
0N/A<

h2>OPTIONS</
h2>
0N/A The <
code class="option">-b</
code> option sets the source IP address of the query
0N/A to <
em class="parameter"><
code>address</
code></
em>. This must be a valid
2086N/A one of the host's network interfaces or "0.0.0.0" or "::". An optional
0N/A may be specified by appending "#<port>"
1155N/A The default query class (IN for internet) is overridden by the
0N/A <
code class="option">-c</
code> option. <
em class="parameter"><
code>class</
code></
em> is
1155N/A class, such as HS for Hesiod records or CH for Chaosnet records.
1155N/A The <
code class="option">-f</
code> option makes <
span><
strong class="command">dig </
strong></
span>
0N/A in batch mode by reading a list of lookup requests to process from the
1155N/A file <
em class="parameter"><
code>filename</
code></
em>. The file contains a
1155N/A queries, one per line. Each entry in the file should be organized in
1155N/A the same way they would be presented as queries to
1155N/A <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span> using the command-line interface.
1155N/A The <
code class="option">-m</
code> option enables memory usage debugging.
2086N/A If a non-standard port number is to be queried, the
2086N/A <
code class="option">-p</
code> option is used. <
em class="parameter"><
code>port#</
code></
em> is
2086N/A the port number that <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span> will send its
0N/A instead of the standard DNS port number 53. This option would be used
0N/A to test a name server that has been configured to listen for queries
1155N/A on a non-standard port number.
1155N/A The <
code class="option">-4</
code> option forces <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span>
1155N/A use IPv4 query transport. The <
code class="option">-6</
code> option forces
1155N/A <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span> to only use IPv6 query transport.
1155N/A The <
code class="option">-t</
code> option sets the query type to
1155N/A <
em class="parameter"><
code>type</
code></
em>. It can be any valid query type
1155N/A supported in BIND 9. The default query type is "A", unless the
1155N/A <
code class="option">-x</
code> option is supplied to indicate a reverse lookup.
0N/A A zone transfer can be requested by specifying a type of AXFR. When
1155N/A an incremental zone transfer (IXFR) is required,
868N/A <
em class="parameter"><
code>type</
code></
em> is set to <
code class="literal">ixfr=N</
code>.
1155N/A The incremental zone transfer will contain the changes made to the zone
1155N/A since the serial number in the zone's SOA record was
1400N/A <
em class="parameter"><
code>N</
code></
em>.
2086N/A The <
code class="option">-q</
code> option sets the query name to
2086N/A <
em class="parameter"><
code>name</
code></
em>. This useful do distinguish the
2086N/A <
em class="parameter"><
code>name</
code></
em> from other arguments.
1155N/A Reverse lookups — mapping addresses to names — are simplified by the
0N/A <
code class="option">-x</
code> option. <
em class="parameter"><
code>addr</
code></
em> is
1155N/A address in dotted-decimal notation, or a colon-delimited IPv6 address.
1155N/A When this option is used, there is no need to provide the
1155N/A <
em class="parameter"><
code>name</
code></
em>, <
em class="parameter"><
code>class</
code></
em> and
1155N/A <
em class="parameter"><
code>type</
code></
em> arguments. <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span>
0N/A automatically performs a lookup for a name like
1155N/A class to PTR and IN respectively. By default, IPv6 addresses are
1155N/A specify the <
code class="option">-i</
code> option. Bit string labels (RFC2874)
1155N/A are now experimental and are not attempted.
1155N/A To sign the DNS queries sent by <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span> and
1155N/A responses using transaction signatures (TSIG), specify a TSIG key file
1155N/A using the <
code class="option">-k</
code> option. You can also specify the TSIG
1155N/A key itself on the command line using the <
code class="option">-y</
code> option;
1155N/A <
em class="parameter"><
code>hmac</
code></
em> is the type of the TSIG, default HMAC-MD5,
1155N/A <
em class="parameter"><
code>name</
code></
em> is the name of the TSIG key and
1155N/A <
em class="parameter"><
code>key</
code></
em> is the actual key. The key is a
1155N/A encoded string, typically generated by
1155N/A <
span class="citerefentry"><
span class="refentrytitle">dnssec-keygen</
span>(8)</
span>.
1155N/A Caution should be taken when using the <
code class="option">-y</
code> option on
1155N/A multi-user systems as the key can be visible in the output from
1155N/A <
span class="citerefentry"><
span class="refentrytitle">ps</
span>(1)</
span>
1155N/A or in the shell's history file. When
1155N/A using TSIG authentication with <
span><
strong class="command">dig</
strong></
span>, the name
1155N/A server that is queried needs to know the key and algorithm that is
1155N/A being used. In BIND, this is done by providing appropriate
1155N/A <
span><

strong></
span> and <
span><
strong class="command">server</

0N/A provides a number of query options which affect
2086N/A the way in which lookups are made and the results displayed. Some of
2086N/A these set or reset flag bits in the query header, some determine which
2086N/A sections of the answer get printed, and others determine the timeout
0N/A Each query option is identified by a keyword preceded by a plus sign
1155N/A (<

0N/A option. These may be preceded
1155N/A by the string <

0N/A should be applied to that query.
1155N/A A global set of query options, which should be applied to all queries,

0N/A If <

0N/A <

0N/A If you'd like to turn off the IDN support for some reason, defines
0N/A the <

0N/A The IDN support is disabled if the variable is set when
