No, that just prints the name in the response.  What I require is the
returned result value. For example in a response for www.google.com I need
to obtain the returned IP addresses. Or CNAMEs etc.

Hopefully I'm not just missing it but the Wireshark display filter reference
doesn't appear to show a way to get this information.
