Performs DNS cache snooping against a DNS server.
There are two modes of operation, controlled by the
dns-cache-snoop.mode
script argument. In
nonrecursive
mode (the default), queries are sent to the
server with the RD (recursion desired) flag set to 0. The server should
respond positively to these only if it has the domain cached. In
timed
mode, the mean and standard deviation response times
for a cached domain are calculated by sampling the resolution of a name
(www.google.com) several times. Then, each domain is resolved and the
time taken compared to the mean. If it is less than one standard
deviation over the mean, it is considered cached. The timed
mode inserts entries in the cache and can only be used reliably once.
The default list of domains to check consists of the top 50 most popular
sites, each site being listed twice, once with "www." and once without.
Use the dns-cache-snoop.domains
script argument to use a
different list.

-- @args dns-cache-snoop.mode which of two supported snooping methods to
-- use. nonrecursive
, the default, checks if the server
-- returns results for non-recursive queries. Some servers may disable
-- this. timed
measures the difference in time taken to
-- resolve cached and non-cached hosts. This mode will pollute the DNS
-- cache and can only be used once reliably.
-- @args dns-cache-snoop.domains an array of domain to check in place of
-- the default list.
