ldns-walk

NAME

ldns-walk − Retrieve the contents of a DNSSEC signed zone

SYNOPSIS

ldns-walk [ OPTION ] ZONE

DESCRIPTION

ldns-walk is used to retrieve the contents of a DNSSEC signed zone. It does this through NSEC-walking (following the chain of NSEC records) and

Note that it might get stuck on some wildcard records when used through a caching forwarder. This problem can be circumvented by querying the authoritative nameserver directly (with the @ argument).

Of course the nameserver that is used must be DNSSEC-aware.

OPTIONS

-s name

Start the walk with this owner name. Useful when continuing the walk for a large zone.

@ nameserver

Send the queries to this nameserver.
