resolvectl

Resolve domain names, IPV4 and IPv6 addresses, DNS resource records, and services.

Introspect and reconfigure the DNS resolver.

• Show DNS settings:

resolvectl status

• Resolve the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses for one or more domains:

resolvectl query {domain1 domain2 ...}

• Retrieve the domain of a specified IP:

resolvectl query {ip_address}

• Retrieve an MX record of domain:

resolvectl --legend={no} --type={MX} query {domain}

• Resolve an SRV record, for example _xmpp-server._tcp gmail.com:

resolvectl service _{service}._{protocol} {name}

• Retrieve the public key from an email address from an OPENPGPKEY DNS record:

resolvectl opengpg {email}

• Retreive a TLS key:

resolvectl tlsa tcp {domain}:443
