NAME
ldns-walk - Retrieve the contents of a DNSSEC signed zoneSYNOPSIS
ldns-walk [ OPTION ] ZONEDESCRIPTION
ldns-walk is used to retrieve the contents of a DNSSEC signed zone. It does this through NSEC-walking (following the chain of NSEC records) and 'guessing' the next non-existent owner name for each NSEC.
Note that it might get stuck on some wildcard records when used through a caching forwarder. This problem can be circumvented by querying the authoritative nameserver directly (with the @ argument).
Of course the nameserver that is used must be DNSSEC-aware.

large zone.
