This utility sends one or more DNS \fIqueries\fR to a nameserver. Each query can
have individual \fIsettings\fR, or it can be specified globally via \fIcommon\-settings\fR,
which must precede \fIquery\fR specification.

.SH DESCRIPTION
The utility sends Dynamic DNS update message to DNS server. Update content is
read from a file (if the parameter \fIfilename\fR is given) or from standard
input. The format of the update is described in \fBINPUT FORMAT\fR section.

specified in the update. The default is 53.
Set the port to use for connections to a server (if not explicitly
specified in the update). The default is \fI53\fR.

The total timeout (all UDP update tries) of the update request in seconds. The default is \fI12\fR. If set to
zero, the timeout is infinite.
.TP
.BI \-r \ retries
The number of retries for UDP requests. The default is 3. Partial timeout for
each try is computed from total timeout (option \fB\-t\fR).
The number of retries for UDP requests. The default is \fI3\fR.

parameter.
.TP
.BI \-y \ \fR[\fIhmac:\fR]\fIname:key
Use TSIG key to authenticate the request. The \fIhmac\fR part specifies the
algorithm (the default is hmac\-md5), \fIname\fR specifies the key name, and
\fIkey\fR specifies the shared secret encoded in Base64.

.SH INPUT FORMAT
The input format is textual and is made up of commands. Every command is placed
on a separate line of the input. Lines starting with a semicolon are comments
and are not processed.
.TP
List of commands format and their description:
.TP
\fBserver\fR \fIname\fR [\fIport\fR]
.BI server \ name \ [\fIport\fR]
Specifies a receiving server of the dynamic update message. Parameter \fIname\fR
can be either a host name or an IP address. If the \fIport\fR is not specified,
default port is used. The default port value can be controlled using program
option \fB\-p\fR.
.TP
\fBzone\fR \fIname\fR
.BI zone \ name
Specifies that all updates are done within a zone named \fIname\fR. If not used,
the default zone is the root zone.
.TP
\fBorigin\fR \fIname\fR
.BI origin \ name
Specifies fully qualified domain name suffix which is appended to
non\-fqd owners in update commands. The default origin is the root zone.
.TP
\fBclass\fR \fIname\fR
.BI class \ name
Sets \fIname\fR as a default class for all updates. If not used, the default
class is IN.
.TP
\fBttl\fR \fIvalue\fR
.BI ttl \ value
Sets \fIvalue\fR as a default TTL (time to live) in seconds. If not used, the
default value is zero.
.TP
\fBkey\fB \fIname\fR \fIkey\fR
.BI key \ name \ \fIkey\fR
Specifies TSIG key to authenticate the request. This command has the same
semantics as the program option \fB\-y\fR, except that the MAC algorithm
cannot be set.
.TP
[\fBupdate\fR] \fBadd\fR \fIname\fR \fIttl\fR [\fIclass\fR] \fItype\fR \fIdata\fR
Adds a request to add a new resource record into the zone. Please note that if the
\fIname\fR is not fully qualified domain name, current \fIorigin\fR name is appended to it.
.TP
[\fBupdate\fR] \fBdel\fR[\fBete\fR] \fIname\fR [\fIttl\fR] [\fIclass\fR] [\fItype\fR] [\fIdata\fR]
Adds a request to remove all (or matching \fIclass\fR, \fItype\fR, \fIdata\fR)
resource records from the zone. There is the same requirement for the
\fIname\fR parameter as in the \fBupdate add\fR command. The \fIttl\fR item is ignored.
.TP
\fBshow\fR
.B show
Displays current content of the update message.
.TP
\fBsend\fR
.B send
Sends the current update message and cleans the list of updates.
.TP
\fBanswer\fR
.B answer
Displays the last answer from the server.
.TP
\fBdebug\fR
.B debug
Enable debugging. This command has the same meaning as program option \fB\-d\fR.
.SH BUGS
Please note that there are slight differences from ISC nsupdate and some
features are not supported. Any bugs, comments, or feature requests can be sent
to \fBknot\-dns@labs.nic.cz\fR.
