dig query time
Hi Guys,

I just need a confirmation if what think i know is right .

Code:
dig yahoo.com

; <<>> DiG 9.7.0-P1 <<>> yahoo.com
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 27410
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 5, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;yahoo.com.                     IN      A

;; ANSWER SECTION:
yahoo.com.              21600   IN      A       72.30.2.43
yahoo.com.              21600   IN      A       98.137.149.56
yahoo.com.              21600   IN      A       209.191.122.70
yahoo.com.              21600   IN      A       67.195.160.76
yahoo.com.              21600   IN      A       69.147.125.65

;; Query time: 67 msec
;; SERVER: 10.237.129.4#53(10.237.129.4)
;; WHEN: Thu Dec 30 14:52:18 2010
;; MSG SIZE  rcvd: 107

"Query time: 67 msec" in dig output is actual time it took dig to get response from DNS server.

Am i correct .. sorry for stupid question. !

I read it as it took 67 msec to lookup yahoo.com via the DNS server at 10.237.129.4 . Did that help?
