adig: Display extra [d]ebugging output.
$ adig -d ${example-com}
try on your machine
The command "adig -d ${example-com}" is using the adig tool to perform a DNS (Domain Name System) query on the domain name "example.com" in debug mode.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "adig" is the name of the tool or the command itself.
- "-d" is an option or flag used to specify debug mode. It enables the display of more detailed information about the DNS query process.
- "${example-com}" is a placeholder for the actual domain name being queried. In this case, it indicates that the command should be executed for the domain name "example.com". The "${}" syntax is often used to represent variables or placeholders in command scripts.
So, when you run this command, it will perform a DNS query on the domain "example.com" and provide detailed debug information about the process.
