SYNOPSIS

       blaeu-resolve domain-name

DESCRIPTION

   General options are:
       --verbose or -v : makes the program more talkative

       --help or -h : this message

       --displayprobes or -o : display the probes numbers (WARNING: big lists)

       --displayprobeasns   :   display   the   (unique)  probe  ASNumbers  (currently  only  for
              blaeu-resolve)

       --cache-probes=<file.json> : cache probe data

       --country=2LETTERSCODE or -c  2LETTERSCODE  :  limits  the  measurements  to  one  country
              (default is world-wide)

       --area=AREACODE or -a AREACODE : limits the measurements to one area such as North-Central
              (default is world-wide)

       --asn=ASnumber or -n ASnumber : limits the measurements to one AS (default is all ASes)

       --prefix=IPprefix or -f IPprefix : limits the measurements to one IP  prefix  (default  is
              all prefixes) WARNING: it must be an *exact* prefix in the global routing table

       --probes=N or -s N : selects the probes by giving explicit ID (one ID or a comma-separated
              list)

       --requested=N or -r N : requests N probes (default is 5)

       --percentage=X or -p X : stops the program as soon as X % of the probes reported a  result
              (default is 90 %)

       --measurement-ID=N or -m N : do not start a measurement, just analyze a former one

       --old-measurement MSMID or -g MSMID : uses the probes of measurement MSMID

       --include  TAGS  or  -i  TAGS  :  limits  the  measurements  to  probes with these tags (a
              comma-separated list)

       --exclude TAGS or -e TAGS : excludes from measurements  the  probes  with  these  tags  (a
              comma-separated list)

       --port=N or -t N : destination port for TCP (default is 80)

       --size=N or -z N : number of bytes in the packet (default is 64 bytes)

       --ipv4  or  -4  :  uses  IPv4 (default is IPv6, except if the parameter or option is an IP
              address, then it is automatically found)

       --tags TAGS : tag the measurement (no relationship with probes  tags)  (a  comma-separated
              list)

       --spread or -w : spreads the tests (add a delay before the tests)

       --private : makes the measurement private

       --resolve-on-probe : resolve names with the probe's DNS resolver

       --machine-readable  or  -b : machine-readable output, to be consumed by tools like grep or
              cut

   Also:
       --displayresolvers or -l : display the resolvers IP addresses (WARNING: big lists)

       --norecursive or -Z : asks the resolver to  NOT  recurse  (default  is  to  recurse,  note
              --norecursive works ONLY if asking a specific resolver, not with the default one)

       --dnssec or -D : asks the resolver the DNSSEC records

       --nsid : asks the resolver with NSID (name server identification)

       --ede : displays EDE (Extended DNS Errors)

       --ednssize=N  or  -B N : asks for EDNS with the "payload size" option (default is very old
              DNS, without EDNS)

       --tcp: uses TCP (default is UDP)

       --tls: uses TLS (implies TCP)

       --checkingdisabled or -k : asks the resolver to NOT perform DNSSEC validation

       --displayvalidation or -j : displays the DNSSEC validation status

       --displayrtt : displays the average RTT

       --authority : displays the Authority section of the answer

       --additional : displays the Additional section of the answer

       --sort or -S : sort the result sets

       --type or -q : query type (default is AAAA)

       --class : query class (default is IN)

       --severalperprobe : count all the resolvers of each probe (default is to  count  only  the
              first to reply)

       --nameserver=name_or_IPaddr[,...]  or  -x name_or_IPaddr : query this name server (default
              is to query the probe's resolver)

       --probe_id : prepend probe ID (and timestamp) to the domain name (default is to abstain)
