The server sends data in the additional section if either
(a) these data are required, or (b) the server supports
and is configured to send data which, although not actually
required, may somehow be “useful”.
The BIND named configuration option “minimal-responses”
controls case (b). If this is set to “no”, and the server
isn’t sending data in the additional section, it’s because
it doesn’t have anything useful to put there.
As this option is part of the server configuration, there
isn’t anything you can do with DiG to enable sending of
additional data.
I hope this helps.
