+.sp
+\fBkdig\fP [\fIcommon\-settings\fP] [\fIquery\fP [\fIsettings\fP]]...
+.sp
+\fBkdig\fP \fB\-h\fP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.sp
+This utility sends one or more DNS queries to a nameserver. Each query can have
+individual \fIsettings\fP, or it can be specified globally via \fIcommon\-settings\fP,
+which must precede \fIquery\fP specification.
+.SS Parameters
+.INDENT 0.0
+.TP
+.B \fIquery\fP
+\fIname\fP | \fB\-q\fP \fIname\fP | \fB\-x\fP \fIaddress\fP | \fB\-G\fP \fItapfile\fP
+.TP
+.B \fIcommon\-settings\fP, \fIsettings\fP
+[\fIquery_class\fP] [\fIquery_type\fP] [\fB@\fP\fIserver\fP]... [\fIoptions\fP]
+.TP
+.B \fIname\fP
+Is a domain name that is to be looked up.
+.TP
+.B \fIserver\fP
+Is a domain name or an IPv4 or IPv6 address of the nameserver to send a query
+to. An additional port can be specified using address:port ([address]:port
+for IPv6 address), address@port, or address#port notation. A value which begins
+with \(aq/\(aq character is considered an absolute UNIX socket path. If no server is
+specified, the servers from \fB/etc/resolv.conf\fP are used.
+.UNINDENT
+.sp
+If no arguments are provided, \fBkdig\fP sends NS query for the root
+zone.
+.SS Query classes
+.sp
+A \fIquery_class\fP can be either a DNS class name (IN, CH) or generic class
+specification \fBCLASS\fP\fIXXXXX\fP where \fIXXXXX\fP is a corresponding decimal
+class number. The default query class is IN.
+.SS Query types
+.sp
+A \fIquery_type\fP can be either a DNS resource record type
+(A, AAAA, NS, SOA, DNSKEY, ANY, etc.) or one of the following:
+.INDENT 0.0
+.TP
+\fBTYPE\fP\fIXXXXX\fP

+type number.
+.TP
+\fBAXFR\fP
+Full zone transfer request.
+.TP
+\fBIXFR=\fP\fIserial\fP
+Incremental zone transfer request for specified SOA serial number
+(i.e. all zone updates since the specified zone version are to be returned).

+Authority might also be specified as the \fIserver\fP (using the parameter \fI@\fP).

+Send custom EDNS option. The \fICODE\fP is EDNS option code in decimal, \fIHEX\fP
+is an optional hex encoded string to use as EDNS option value. This argument
+can be used multiple times. +noednsopt clears all EDNS options specified by
++ednsopt.
+.TP
+\fB+\fP[\fBno\fP]\fBproxy\fP=\fISRC_ADDR\fP[#\fISRC_PORT\fP]\-\fIDST_ADDR\fP[#\fIDST_PORT\fP]
+Add PROXYv2 header with the specified source and destination addresses to the query.
+The default source port is 0 and destination port 53.
+.TP
+\fB+\fP[\fBno\fP]\fBjson\fP
+Use JSON for output encoding (RFC 8427).
+.TP
+\fB+noidn\fP
+Disable the IDN transformation to ASCII and vice versa. IDN support depends
+on libidn2 availability during project building! If used in \fIcommon\-settings\fP,
+all IDN transformations are disabled. If used in the individual query \fIsettings\fP,
+transformation from ASCII is disabled on output for the particular query. Note
+that IDN transformation does not preserve domain name letter case.

+.sp
+Dnssec\-keygen keyfile format is not supported. Use \fBkeymgr(8)\fP instead.
