You would need the DNS resolve library: (and possibly more)

To find the nameservers for a domain you need to ask the NS records.
Or use some AXFR zone transfer fr a known domain.
If you mean to find listeners on port UDP:53.
then you need to do queries to all IP addresses port 53.. Which is a bit more involved. Like enumeratings over all addresses and ask for correct info.

Great Thanks noci.
And to get all IPs on a network... You must have a starting point, like an IP range.
Then you must determine what constitutes an IP.
By your question, seems like you may be looking for certain services active on certain IPs.
For this you'd use nmap or netcat with the -z option.
Best to describe what you mean by an IP, then someone can assist.
And... highly unlikely you will do this in Python. Rather you'll run some command line tool which does the work for you, so this code will be independent of Python.
