Resolve-DnsName

SYNOPSIS

Performs a DNS name query resolution for the specified name.

SYNTAX

Resolve-DnsName [-Name] <String> [[-Type] <RecordType>] [-Server <String[]>] [-DnsOnly] [-CacheOnly]
 [-DnssecOk] [-DnssecCd] [-NoHostsFile] [-LlmnrNetbiosOnly] [-LlmnrFallback] [-LlmnrOnly] [-NetbiosFallback]
 [-NoIdn] [-NoRecursion] [-QuickTimeout] [-TcpOnly] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

The Resolve-DnsName cmdlet performs a DNS query for the specified name. This cmdlet is functionally similar to the nslookup tool which allows users to query for names.

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

PS C:\>Resolve-DnsName -Name www.bing.com

This example resolves a name using the default options.

EXAMPLE 2

PS C:\>Resolve-DnsName -Name www.bing.com -Server 10.0.0.1

This example resolves a name against the DNS server at 10.0.0.1.

EXAMPLE 3

PS C:\>Resolve-DnsName -Name www.bing.com -Type A

This example queries for A type records for name www.bing.com.

EXAMPLE 4

PS C:\>Resolve-DnsName -Name www.bing.com -DnsOnly

This example resolves a name using only DNS. LLMNR and NetBIOS queries are not issued.
