This tool is a one-stop solution for getting information about a domain or IP address. Instead of manually using different unix commands or visiting numerous websites to "investigate" a host, just use the Network Query Tool and enter the hostname or IP. This tool will perform the following tasks:
- Reverse lookup - converts an IP to a hostname (if one exists) or vice versa
- DNS query - aka DiG, requires that the `dig` command work on your system
- Whois (WWW) - gets domain registration information. Currently supports .com, .net, .org, .edu, .name, .info, .us, .cc, .ws, and .biz.
- Whois (IP) - gets IP owner information. Supports all IP blocks maintained by ARIN (US), RIPE (Europe), JPNIC (Japan), APNIC (China/Asia-Pacific), and REG-BR (Brazil).
- Check port - See if a port on the target host is open.
- Ping - does a 5-packet ping to the specified target.
- Traceroute - completes a traceroute to the target.
