dnst notify
===============
Synopsis
--------
:program:`dnst notify` ``[OPTIONS]`` ``-z <ZONE>`` ``<SERVERS>...``
Description
-----------
**dnst notify** sends a NOTIFY message to the specified name servers.
This tells them that an updated zone is available at the primaries. It can
perform TSIG signatures, and it can add a SOA serial number of the updated
zone. If a server already has that serial number it will disregard the message.

default on port 53.
Each name server can be specified as a domain name or IP address.

Destination port to send the UDP packet to. Defaults to 53.
