DNS lookup

Everything DNS says about a domain: traced from the root servers down, every record type asked of the domain's own nameservers, each nameserver checked, then every hostname and policy record it points at followed, with SPF, DMARC, DKIM and DNSSEC checked along the way.

Try example.com, gmail.com, www.github.com, dnssec-failed.org, 1.1.1.1. A URL, e-mail address or IP address works too.

  • Note bbc.com isn't signed with DNSSEC, so resolvers can't tell forged answers from real ones.

DNSSEC

bbc.com isn't signed: no DS at the parent and no DNSKEY in the zone.

Email

Mail servers (MX)

No MX records: mail goes to the name's A/AAAA address, if anything accepts it there.

SPF

No SPF record.

DMARC

v=DMARC1;p=reject;aspf=s;adkim=s;pct=100;fo=0;ri=86400; rua=mailto:dmarc_agg@vali.email;

From _dmarc.bbc.com (the organisational domain's policy applies).

DKIM alignmentstrict

Failure report options0

DKIM

None of the 36 common selectors tried has a key. DKIM may still be set up under another selector: find it in the DKIM-Signature header (s=) of a mail from this domain.

Hosts and reverse DNS

Every hostname the records point at, resolved to its addresses; each address's PTR (reverse DNS), with ✓ where the PTR name resolves back to the same address.

What four public resolvers answer right now, from their caches. Highlighted values differ from the authoritative answer: either a recent change they haven't picked up yet (the TTL says how long until they do), or, for A and AAAA, a CDN or geo-routed site handing each resolver location its own addresses.
