The nslookup command is a user interface to the DNS service, and provides name resolution lookup (among other things).
It can also be used to debug problems with DNS resolution and the DNS configuration itself, return zone information, etc.

Here is what I was able to do on our local system: $ uname -a SunOS <uname -n> 5.9 Generic_122300-25 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-15000 $ /usr/sbin/nslookup <IP-ADDRESS> *** Can't find server name for address <SERVER_IP1>: Server failed Server: <F.Q.D.N of SERVER_IP0> Address: <SERVER_IP0> nslookup is a standard TCP/IP utility, which exists in both Windows and Unix. You could also use 'dig' as a replacement in Unix.
nslookup along with the URL i.e. "nslookup www.google.com"
nslookup command is used C:\>nslookup ? Usage: nslookup [-opt ...] # interactive mode using default server nslookup [-opt ...] - server # interactive mode using 'server' nslookup [-opt ...] host # just look up 'host' using default server nslookup [-opt ...] host server # just look up 'host' using 'server'
nslookup is basically used to see the dns address and actual server address.
Priority of request
To perform an nslookup for a domain, open your command line interface (Command Prompt on Windows or Terminal on macOS/Linux) and type nslookup, followed by the domain name you want to query (e.g., nslookup example.com). Press Enter, and the tool will return the IP address associated with that domain, along with other DNS information. You can also specify a DNS server by appending its address after the domain (e.g., nslookup example.com 8.8.8.8 for Google's DNS).
