About the NSLookup

A simple DNS query in the familiar nslookup style: enter a domain, get the addresses and records it resolves to.

• Straightforward answers without protocol noise
• Common record types covered
• Runs from our resolvers, so it ignores your local cache

Frequently asked questions

Why does nslookup show a different answer than my browser?

Your browser and operating system cache DNS answers. A direct query shows the current published record.

Is nslookup still worth using?

For a quick "what does this resolve to" check, yes. For debugging, dig gives far more detail.
