Description from RFC1035.txt 3.2.1. Format All RRs have the same top level format shown below: 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 +--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+ | NAME | +--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+ | TYPE | +--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+ | CLASS | +--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+ | TTL | +--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+ | RDLENGTH | +--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--| | RDATA | +--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+ NAME an owner name, i.e., the name of the node to which this resource record pertains. TYPE two octets containing one of the RR TYPE codes. CLASS two octets containing one of the RR CLASS codes. TTL a 32 bit signed integer that specifies the time interval that the resource record may be cached before the source of the information should again be consulted. Zero values are interpreted to mean that the RR can only be used for the transaction in progress, and should not be cached. For example, SOA records are always distributed with a zero TTL to prohibit caching. Zero values can also be used for extremely volatile data. RDLENGTH an unsigned 16 bit integer that specifies the length in octets of the RDATA field. RDATA a variable length string of octets that describes the resource. The format of this information varies according to the TYPE and CLASS of the resource record. 3.3.11. NS RDATA format +--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+ / NSDNAME / / / +--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+ where: NSDNAME A which specifies a host which should be authoritative for the specified class and domain. NS records cause both the usual additional section processing to locate a type A record, and, when used in a referral, a special search of the zone in which they reside for glue information. The NS RR states that the named host should be expected to have a zone starting at owner name of the specified class. Note that the class may not indicate the protocol family which should be used to communicate with the host, although it is typically a strong hint. For example, hosts which are name servers for either Internet (IN) or Hesiod (HS) class information are normally queried using IN class protocols. =over 4 =item * @stuff = $get->NS(\$buffer,$offset); Get the contents of the resource record. USE: @stuff = $get->next(\$buffer,$offset); where: @stuff = ( $newoff $name,$type,$class,$ttl,$rdlength, $nsdname ); All except the last item, B<$nsdname>, is provided by the class loader, B. The code in this method knows how to retrieve B<$nsdname>. input: pointer to buffer, offset into buffer returns: offset to next resource, @common RR elements, NS Domain Name =cut sub get { my($self,$bp,$offset) = @_; $offset += NS_INT16SZ; # skip over rdlength dn_expand($bp,$offset); } =item * ($newoff,@dnptrs)=$put->NS(\$buffer,$offset,\@dnptrs, $name,$type,$class,$ttl,$nsdname); Append an NS record to $buffer. where @common = ( $name,$type,$class,$ttl); The method will insert the $rdlength and $nsdname, then pass through the updated pointer to the array of compressed names The class loader, B, inserts the @common elements and returns updated @dnptrs. This module knows how to insert its RDATA and calculate the $rdlength. input: pointer to buffer, offset (normally end of buffer), pointer to compressed name array, @common RR elements, NS Domain Name output: offset to next RR, new compressed name pointer array, or empty list () on error. =cut sub put { return () unless @_; # always return on error my($self,$bp,$off,$dnp,$nsdname) = @_; my $rdlp = $off; # save pointer to rdlength return () unless # check for valid offset and get ($off = put16($bp,$off,0)) && # offset to name space (@_ = dn_comp($bp,$off,\$nsdname,$dnp)); # new offset is first item in @_ # rdlength = new offset - previous offset put16($bp,$rdlp, $_[0] - $off); return @_; } =item * (@COMMON,$NSDNAME) = $parse->NS(@common,$nsdname); Converts binary/numeric field data into human readable form. The common RR elements are supplied by the class loader, B. For NS RR's, this returns $nsdname terminated with '.' input: NS Domain Name returns: NS Domain Name. =back =cut sub parse { shift; # $self return ((shift).'.'); } =head1 DEPENDENCIES Net::DNS::ToolKit Net::DNS::Codes =head1 EXPORT none =head1 AUTHOR Michael Robinton =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright 2003, Michael Robinton This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
