Quoting from p...@mail.nsbeta.info's mail on Thu, Dec 30, 2010:
What's the difference between these two flags in the response of
dig?
< ;; flags: qr ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 2, ADDITIONAL: 0
ra : recursion available
The nameserver is ready to ask other nameservers for the record we
queried.
As the 'aa' flag is also missing above, the answer is not authoritative.
>;; flags: qr aa; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 2, ADDITIONAL: 0
aa : authoritative answer
The nameserver is authoritative for the zone of the record that we
queried.
As the 'ra' flag is also missing above, the nameserver will not do a
lookup for you for records it does not know about.
Thanks a lot.
Where is the document for these flags?
I google'd but got no correct result :)
Regards.
