DESCRIPTION

16       ixplore  is a tool to work with IXFR (incremental zonetransfers) in two
17       modes (specified by COMMAND): diff or track.
18
19       In the 'diff' mode, it will show a diff(1)-like output  between  BEFORE
20       and AFTER.
21
22       In  the 'track' mode, ixplore consumes IXFRs from IP ADDRESS and writes
23       the resulting zonefiles out to  DIRECTORY/ZONE-serial.  If  no  initial
24       zonefiles  exist, an initial AXFR will be done first. ixplore will then
25       check the SOA serial on IP ADDRESS for ZONE every SOA  Refresh  seconds
26       and perform an IXFR if the serial has increased.
