DNS Lookup

Show records for a domain from a chosen DNS provider, with cache, timeout, and limits. It is not a broad scan.

A domain or subdomain, such as example.com or _dmarc.example.com.

Try:

The button sends only what you typed to this site, which asks public DNS or that address for you. Up to 10 lookups a minute.

Your result

Type a name and press Look up to see its DNS records.

How to use it

  1. Type a hostname such as example.test.
  2. Press Look up.
  3. Read the records. A private address is marked omitted.

Tool details and privacy

Type one hostname. This site asks its own DNS resolver for A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, and CNAME records. Private addresses are omitted. This is not a scan and you do not choose the resolver.

One name is enough to read the public records. A wide scan or a zone transfer is not offered.

Options

  • One hostname only. An IP address is refused.
  • The result is cached for about five minutes.
  • CNAME and the other types are listed even when they are empty.

Limits

  • This is not a zone transfer or a scan of many names.
  • The resolver is the one this server uses.
  • A private address is omitted rather than shown.

Privacy

What you type is sent to this site so it can ask a public service or DNS. It is not stored in the tool analytics. A failed lookup is an error, not a made-up result.
