As Ray said, usually it isn't ambiguous.

But there are a couple of semi-relevant tools that are worth knowing
about:

You can use `named-checkconf -p` to canonicalize your configuration (so
you don't have to chase down include files, etc.), plus the -x option
strips out secrets (TSIG keys) which is handy for tech support cases.

And the statistics channel has loads of details, some of which are
config-related. `curl http://SERVER:8053/json/v1 | gron | less` is a
good way to get an idea of what it contains.

Hello,

How can I check which variables are loaded in memory and considered as 
active.


For example, I would like to check that the value of lame-ttl is 0
In my named.conf configuration file I have
include "myconf.conf";
lame-ttl 600;

And in the myconf.conf file I have
lame-ttl 0;

So how can I make sure which value is used ?


You can't do that - BIND prohibits redeclaration of individual options,

It also prohibits the presence of more than one "options { }" block.
