The DNSCache collector shows DNS information about device local cache.
Note
On Linux client systems, the DNSCache collector leverages the "nslookup" system command, which is not available by default on some Linux platforms. Hence, you might need to install the "nslookup" system command manually before running the DNSCache collector.
