Which lookup tool query both hosts and DNS server?
As i understand, host/nslookup/dig only query DNS server to resolve name to ip.
ping can query both, but it seems if ping is blocked, ping won't return IP.
traceroute can query both, but i am not able to test if traceroute is blocked, What is the result?
Neither ping/traceroute is decent tool to do the job,any other ideas?
