Added
- New method to determine the actual zone name for a given FQDN. Historically it was an extraction
of the second-level domain given well-known TLDs (eg.,domain.net
forwww.domain.net
) using
tldextract
, and usage of--delegated
option to enforce a specific zone name that is useful for
third-level domains hosted on a specific zone (eg., sub-zonesub.domain.net
delegated from zone
domain.net
).
It is now possible to use the--resolve-zone-name
flag on Lexicon client to trigger an actual
resolution of the zone name from a given FQDN using live DNS servers by leveragingdnspython
utilities. Most of the time this makes--delegated
useless, since Lexicon will be able to guess
the correct zone name.
