dnstop's Introduction

DNSTOP: STAY ON TOP OF YOUR DNS TRAFFIC

dnstop is a libpcap application (like 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
  • Responses with code REFUSED
  • Responses with code SERVFAIL
  • Responses with code NXDOMAIN

dnstop can either read packets from the live capture device, or from a tcpdump savefile.

For compatibility with musl libc, define CFLAGS=-D_GNU_SOURCE during configure.
