Command dig to resolve network issues

204 views Asked by At

I am downloading a font resource from an external font loader. However, it is taking a long time to download. I am in contact with a member of the support team who has asked me to provide him with the output of dig resource.com to provide him with more information.

Where should I run the command dig? I tried the windows command line, but dig is not a recognized command. Is there a browser utility to run this command? If this is a linux-only operation, is there a comparable Windows operation? Thank you!

dig is a Linux command to do DNS lookups. There are versions of dig available for windows, but you can simply use nslookup instead. Just open a command window (you can do this by clicking start... then type cmd). Then, in the command window, type nslookup resource.com.
