Record types
dog supports all these amazing record types:
Unknown record types
Records with a type number that doesn’t map to any known record type will still be displayed, but as they cannot be interpreted, their contents will be shown as a series of numbers instead.
Future record types
dog also contains a list of record type names that it knows the type number of, but is not able to interpret, such as IXFR
or ANY
or AFSDB
.
These are acceptable as command-line arguments, meaning you can send an AFSDB
request with dog AFSDB
; however, their response contents will still be displayed as numbers.
They will hopefully be supported in future versions of dog.
