Command Usage

Servers or other network devices may support one or more connections via multiple IP
addresses. If more than one IP address is associated with a host name via information
returned from a name server, a DNS client can try each address in succession, until it
establishes a connection with the target device.

Parameters

These parameters are displayed:

No. – The entry number for each resource record.

Flag – The flag is always “4” indicating a cache entry and therefore unreliable.

Type – This field includes CNAME which specifies the host address for the owner, and ALIAS
which specifies an alias.

IP – The IP address associated with this record.

TTL – The time to live reported by the name server.

Host – The host name associated with this record.
