Capturing DNS Queries

You can capture queries to all domains or only to specific ones. Also, you can apply the Bulk Add Domains feature to tailor capturing of queries to a specific subset of domains or zones. When capturing DNS queries, NIOS matches a specified domain’s name and everything that belongs to the domain; for example, when you specify foo.com as the domain, NIOS captures queries sent to foo.com, mail.foo.com, and ftp.foo.com. NIOS captures queries to domains for which a name server is authoritative, and it captures recursive queries. Note that this feature does not support wildcard characters or regular expressions.Â
