Packages and Binaries:
dnsx
This package contains a fast and multi-purpose DNS toolkit allow to run multiple probes using retryabledns library, that allows you to perform multiple DNS queries of your choice with a list of user supplied resolvers, additionally supports DNS wildcard filtering like shuffledns (https://github.com/projectdiscovery/shuffledns).
Features
- Simple and Handy utility to query DNS records
- Supports A, AAAA, CNAME, PTR, NS, MX, TXT, SOA
- Supports DNS Status Code probing
- Supports DNS Tracing
- Handles wildcard subdomains in automated way.
- Stdin and stdout support to work with other tools.
