--sourceaddr STR Source IP address used to send queries.
Setting an IP address not correctly configured
on a local network interface causes cryptic
error messages.
It is expected that some error message comes out if the IP address is wrong (not configured on the interface), but when --sourceaddr is used in that way nothing comes out that gives a clue.
Compare a test with correct IP address with a one that is not on the interface (IPv6 disabled):
$ zonemaster-cli --test basic --level info zonemaster.net --no-ipv6 --sourceaddr 172.31.10.109 # Correct IP address
