NAMEBENCH 1.3.1 HOW TO
We’ll see how to do that, How to test the speed of various DNS Servers? – DNS Benchmarking If you are using Linux machine, then an open source package called namebench can help you to compare the speeds of various DNS servers. It means, a comparison of DNS server will be a better starting point before migrating to a different DNS service.

Before changing the DNS server, you must know the speed of your current DNS server compared to other DNS servers.

Reimplement functions that were planned, but did not work with namebench 1.3.If you are a regular follower of Techglimpse, then by this time you must be aware of What is DNS, How it works and how to find out IP address of DNS configured on your PC and how to change or switch to public DNS.
NAMEBENCH 1.3.1 INSTALL
NAMEBENCH 1.3.1 SOFTWARE
Prerequisite: the system running this software must have the tool "nslookup" installed.
NAMEBENCH 1.3.1 CODE
While it seems that the initial Author wanted to move the application towards GO with another application use - I just wanted to continue and maintain the python variant as it did what it should.Īfter investigation the python code showed up some very frustrating complications, which were leading to my decision to reimplement the initial application idea - also in GO. This project has been forked from google/namebench. NAMEinator runs on Windows (10), Linux (tested on Ubuntu 16.04) and is available with aĪ command-line interface and in the near future with a graphical user interface. This project began as a 20% project at Google. NAMEinator is completelyįree and does not modify your system in any way. NAMEinator runs a fair and thorough benchmark using standardizedĭatasets in order to provide an individualized recommendation. It hunts down the fastest DNS servers available for yourĬomputer to use. Are you a power-user with 5 minutes to spare? Do you want a faster internet experience?
