DESCRIPTION

       fetchzone transfers a user-specified dns zone from a zone server and
       displays it in csv2 format on the standard output.

       query_class

       Optional argument which can change the query class from 1 (the default)
       to 255. This may be needed for some versions of Bind.

       them.
