    Hi,

    do you mean big-ip dns (new name of GTM (from version 9.X to 11.X), which was new name of 3DNS (before version 9.X))

    Yes, you can use tcpdump with command:

    tcpdump -nni any -s0 -A udp port 53 and host X.X.X.X

    this will capture

    • on any interfaces (-i any)
    • without resolving host and port (-nn)
    • full packet and not only headers (-s0)
    • display on terminal out the packet content (-A)
    • with filter 
      udp port 53 and host X.X.X.X
