I have a PHP script that calls the bash dig
command through the exec
function on Ubuntu to monitor hundreds of domains.
What the script does is to call dig
to fetch some DNS records on each domain for analysis. This script is run by a cron job every 10 minutes.
I wonder, if issuing hundreds of DNS queries within a short period of time might run into some rate limit issue and make it fail ultimately.
If such DNS query traffic is fine for now, I wonder what traffic would get me into any sort of DNS rate-limiting issue (if any), since the number of domains I am managing is growing.
Thanks!
