queryperf: 測試DNS Server的效能/壓力工具

今天找到了一個對於DNS Server做stress test的好工具: queryperf，這個工具事實上內建於bind套件中，不過我的Centos5.2與OpenSUSE10是透過rpm安裝bind的，利用rpm -ql | grep -i queryperf卻找不到相關的檔案？於是乎我去抓了bind tarball檔，將queryperf compile起來，產生queryperf binary file就可以使用了。

使用的語法也不難主要如下:

./queryperf -d -s

-d 是讀取測試RR文檔的意思
-s 是指定所要測試的DNS Server

RR_document的格式也是很簡單的，請參考以下範例:
server1.example.com A -> query server1.example.com A Record
example.com MX -> query example.com domain mx Record
mail.example.com CNAME -> query mail.example.com CNAME
server1.example.com TXT -> query server1.example.com TXT Record
example.com TXT -> query example.com domain TXT Record
example.com NS -> query example.com domain NS Record
100.10.10.10.in-addr.arpa PTR -> query 10.10.10.100 PTR Record
101.10.10.10.in-addr.arpa PTR -> query 10.10.10.101 PTR Record

Note: ->是說明，不需要加入到RR_document

執行結果:

緊接著來寫個簡單的script讓他不斷的執行queryperf吧!
#!/bin/bash
while true
do
./queryperf -d dnstest -s $1 -v
done

把DNS所有的RR都寫入RR_document，這麼一來，就可以來試看看你的DNS Server耐不耐操了 XD！
