DNSViz is a Python tool suite for analysis and visualization of DNS behavior, including DNSSEC security extensions. It provides command-line tools and powers the web-based analysis service at dnsviz.net.

Use cases

  • diagnose DNSSEC misconfigurations for a domain
  • visualize DNS delegation and trust chain
  • pre-deployment testing of DNS zones before going live
  • audit DNSSEC signatures and key algorithms
  • troubleshoot DNS resolution issues
  • check DNS behavior across authoritative servers

When to choose

  • you need deep DNSSEC analysis and visualization
  • you want to validate a zone before deployment
  • you need a scriptable CLI for DNS diagnostics

When to avoid

  • you only need simple DNS lookups (use dig)
  • you need a GUI-only tool without CLI
  • you need continuous DNS monitoring with alerting out of the box
