Description
dnstop is a libpcap application (a la tcpdump) that displays various tables of DNS traffic on your network. Currently dnstop displays tables of:
\* Source IP addresses
\* Destination IP addresses
\* Query types
\* Response codes
\* Opcodes
\* Top level domains
\* Second level domains
\* Third level domains
\* etc...
dnstop supports both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
To help find especially undesirable DNS queries, dnstop provides a number of filters. The filters tell dnstop to display only the following types of queries:
\* For unknown/invalid TLDs
\* A queries where the query name is already an IP address
\* PTR queries for RFC1918 address space
