For Windows users using the Linux subsystem

If you receive an error $'\r': command not found, convert the file to a Linux-compatible line endings using:

tr -d '\15\32' < dnstest.sh > dnstest-2.sh

Then run bash ./dnstest-2.sh

dnsperftest's Issues

Add ability to rank themed DNS servers

Like those blocking malware or those blocking adult sites.

Add a License

does not work if `resolv.conf` uses tabs instead of spaces

Running this script on synology out-of-the-box incorrectly gathers invalid nameservers for the host.

cat /etc/resolv.conf | grep ^nameserver | cut -d " " -f 2 | sed 's/\(.*\)/&#&/'
nameserver	192.168.1.1#nameserver	192.168.1.1

...this is resolved by adding cut -f 2 (which uses the default tab delimiter for cut) and it also continues to work on other OSes where the space is used. I'll create a PR for this change.

Every result is 1000ms

I’m not sure if I did something wrong but I installed bc and bind with brew install bc bind and ran the script with bash ./dnstest.sh |sort -k 22 -n

This is what it showed when it finished:

This is on an M1 MBA running macOS 14.3.1

Dig vs Dog time differences

Apologies - I wasn't able to locate an answer using google or stackoverflow.

Why is there a large time difference caused when substituting the dig command for the dog command?

To replicate, replace:

ttime=`$dig +tries=1 +time=2 +stats @$pip $d |grep "Query time:" | cut -d : -f 2- | cut -d " " -f 2`

with

ttime=`$dog $d @$pip --time | grep "Ran in" | cut -c 8-15 | cut -d "m" -f 1`

also add the following at the top of the file after ~line 5/6


{ command -v drill > /dev/null && dog=drill; } || { command -v dog > /dev/null && dog=dog; } || { echo "error: dog was not found. Please install dog."; exit 1; }

As an example - here are my DNS perfs (i amended so you can see which domain its hitting)

Windows 10?

I wonder if there is any way to test this on windows.

Command not found

When running the shell script on windows 10 using git bash, it keeps showing command not found.

Add test against system default DNS

I think it'd worthwhile testing the system's default DNS as well so people can compare results against their router/ISP/etc.

Cloudflare test fails if default IP of 1.1.1.1 is consumed by other devices

The Cloudflare test fails if default IP of 1.1.1.1 is consumed by other (misconfigured) devices.
Perhaps the Cloudflare IP you use should be 1.0.0.1, to avoid that issue.

This is what it looks like because service provider's router also has 1.1.1.1 on it and that IP doesn't respond to DNS queries.

What does "google" mean?

The results include 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 and google, all three have different timings (google being the best)

What is google if it is neither 8.8.8.8 nor 8.8.4.4?

what is going on with my results?

I am puzzled by my results. Google1 (8.8.8.8) and Cloudflare1 (1.1.1.1) always show what looks like exactly 5s spikes or just errors. All the others are always fine and I see no such spikes with pings.. While I guess it's not the script faults anybody has any idea what is going on?

I have DiG 9.12.1..

Android Termux compatibility

I was trying to test script on my Android Termux and observed following:

File resolve.conf is not under the /etc folder, it is under the /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/etc one
Command drill does not support + options

Apart from that it looks like working OK.

Areg

IPv6 addresses result in misaligned columns

The script apparently pulls the system's default DNS server entries. In my case, one of those is an IPv6 address (2607:fe28:0:1000::5), and because its length, pushes the columns over, so the recommend sort doesn't work correctly:

root@frankb-PC:/mnt/c/Users/fbulk/dnsperftest# bash ./dnstest.sh | sort -k 22 -n
2607:fe28:0:1000::519 ms 40 ms 22 ms 10 ms 31 ms 9 ms 24 ms 47 ms 9 ms 65 ms 27.60

premier2 16 ms 14 ms 12 ms 13 ms 13 ms 10 ms 9 ms 11 ms 13 ms 11 ms 12.20

Why did you use BC?

I've removed the bc and command dependencies and changed the average calculation to pure shell scripting in the hopes of making the script a bit more compatible with limited systems.

Instead of

command -v (...)
(...)
avg=`bc -l <<< "scale=2; $ftime/$totaldomains"`

I changed to

which (...)
(...)
avg=$((100 * ftime / totaldomains))
avg_decimal=$((avg / 100))
avg_remainder=$((avg % 100))
printf "%d.%02d\n" $avg_decimal $avg_remainder

It seems the result is correct.

Why did you use BC after all?

Perform a DNSSEC resolver test

A test validation using dig:

dig sigok.verteiltesysteme.net @127.0.0.1 (should return A record)
dig sigfail.verteiltesysteme.net @127.0.0.1 (should return SERVFAIL)

From: http://dnssec.vs.uni-due.de/

Issue with dig

I'm sure this is a really simple issue but I can't seem to chase it down. Running Arch and get the following error:

Change sort by fastest example

Adding any extra DNS servers will break the example sort command:
$ bash ./dnstest.sh |sort -k 22 -n

A cleaner way would be to sort by the last column automatically:
$ bash ./dnstest.sh | awk '{ print $NF,$0 }' | sort -k1,1 -n | cut -f2- -d' '

Repeated DNS Server Test Shown

I am using "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" on Windows 10 v1709. I have my defauly DNS Server changed yesterday to 1.1.1.1 and alterantive to Open Dns One. IDK why but Cloudflare was tested 3 times, Open DNS 2x.

This is My result:

README: add links or descriptions about each DNS service

That would make it a little easier to the pros/cons of using one DNS service over another.

Mack Pro 2010 vs MacBook Air (2020, M1)

I tested the difference between two machines (see title) on a network that has -> Pihole -> Unbound. The Unbound service was hot - so I don't believe cache is an issue.

I was getting consistently slow requests across all providers on the new MacBook Air. Anyone else?

Note

MacBook Air - Tx Rate (104Mbps,802.11n)
MacBook Pro - Tx Rate (73Mbps, 802.11n)
The results below were repeated several times, without much change on each machine

How to a make it work in DSM (Synology)

Hi, I found your bash script interesting but I want to use it on my Synology server. It is possible to modify it to make it works or install something for this to happen?

Thank you in advance!

How to submit results?

In the DNS Performance Results file, it says 'Feel free to add yours'

What is the preferred way to submit results?

Issue on Ubuntu

Error recieved

./dnstest.sh: 1: ./dnstest.sh: Syntax error: redirection unexpected

This is due to the shell not having <<< by default on ubuntu. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2462317/bash-syntax-error-redirection-unexpected for reference. Changing line 1 to bash worked for me.

List package deps in readme

In a fresh Ubuntu container, I had to install git, bc, and dnsutils. It would be great if these were mentioned ahead of time.

Please add NextDNS to the list of tested servers

My solution

I changed the code below
$dig +short +tries=1 +time=2 +stats @2a0d:2a00:1::1 www.google.com |grep 216.239.38.120 >/dev/null 2>&1
$dig +tries=1 +time=2 +stats @$pip $d |grep "Query time:" | cut -d : -f 2- | cut -d " " -f 2
