=head1 NAME
Net::DNS::ToolKit::RR::AFSDB - Resource Record Handler
=head1 SYNOPSIS
DO NOT use Net::DNS::ToolKit::RR::AFSDB
DO NOT require Net::DNS::ToolKit::RR::AFSDB
Net::DNS::ToolKit::RR::AFSDB is autoloaded by
class Net::DNS::ToolKit::RR and its methods
are instantiated in a 'special' manner.
use Net::DNS::ToolKit::RR;
($get,$put,$parse) = new Net::DNS::ToolKit::RR;
($newoff,$name,$type,$class,$ttl,$rdlength,
$subtype,$hostname) = $get->AFSDB(\$buffer,$offset);
Note: the $get->AFSDB method is normally called
via: @stuff = $get->next(\$buffer,$offset);
($newoff,@dnptrs)=$put->AFSDB(\$buffer,$offset,\@dnptrs,
$name,$type,$class,$ttl,$subtype,$hostname);
$NAME,$TYPE,$CLASS,$TTL,$rdlength,$subtype,$AFSDBDNAME)
= $parse->AFSDB($name,$type,$class,$ttl,$rdlength,
$subtype,$hostname);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
B<Net::DNS::ToolKit::RR:AFSDB> appends an AFSDB resource record to a DNS packet
under construction, recovers an AFSDB resource record from a packet being decoded, and
converts the numeric/binary portions of the resource record to human
readable form.
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.
Description from RFC1183.txt
1. AFSDB RDATA format
+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+
| SUBTYPE |
+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+
/ HOSTNAME /
/ /
+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+
where:
AFSDB has the following format:
<owner> <ttl> <class> AFSDB <subtype> <hostname>
Both RDATA fields are required in all AFSDB RRs. The <subtype> field
is a 16 bit integer. The <hostname> field is a domain name of a host
that has a server for the cell named by the owner name of the RR.
The format of the AFSDB RR is class insensitive. AFSDB records cause
type A additional section processing for <hostname>. This, in fact,
is the rationale for using a new type code, rather than trying to
build the same functionality with TXT RRs.
Note that the format of AFSDB in a master file is identical to MX.
For purposes of the DNS itself, the subtype is merely an integer.
The present subtype semantics are discussed below, but changes are
possible and will be announced in subsequent RFCs.
=over 4
=item * @stuff = $get->AFSDB(\$buffer,$offset);
Get the contents of the resource record.
USE: @stuff = $get->next(\$buffer,$offset);
where: @stuff = (
$newoff $name,$type,$class,$ttl,$rdlength,
$subtype,$hostname );
All except the last two items, B<$subtype, $hostname>, are provided by
the class loader, B<Net::DNS::ToolKit::RR>. The code in this method knows
how to retrieve B<$subtype, $hostname>.
input: pointer to buffer,
offset into buffer
returns: offset to next resource,
@common RR elements,
subtype,
host domain name
=cut
sub get {
my($self,$bp,$offset) = @_;
$offset += INT16SZ; # don't need rdlength
(my $subtype,$offset) = get16($bp,$offset);
($offset, my $hostname) = dn_expand($bp,$offset);
return ($offset,$subtype,$hostname);
}
=item * ($newoff,@dnptrs)=$put->AFSDB(\$buffer,$offset,\@dnptrs,
$name,$type,$class,$ttl,$subtype,$hostname);
Append an AFSDB record to $buffer.
where @common = (
$name,$type,$class,$ttl);
The method will insert the $rdlength, $subtype and $hostname, then
return the updated pointer to the array of compressed names
The class loader, B<Net::DNS::ToolKit::RR>, inserts the @common elements and
returns updated @dnptrs. This module knows how to insert its RDATA and
calculate the $rdlength.
input: pointer to buffer,
offset (normally end of buffer),
pointer to compressed name array,
@common RR elements,
subtype
host domain name
output: offset to next RR,
new compressed name pointer array,
or empty list () on error.
=cut
sub put {
return () unless @_; # always return on error
my($self,$bp,$off,$dnp,$subtype,$hostname) = @_;
my $rdlp = $off; # save pointer to rdlength
my $doff; # data offset
return () unless # check for valid offset and get
($doff = put16($bp,$off,0)) && # offset for subtype
($off = put16($bp,$doff,$)) &&
(@_ = dn_comp($bp,$off,\$hostname,$dnp));
# new offset is first item in @_
# rdlength = new offset - previous offset
put16($bp,$rdlp, $_[0] - $doff);
return(@_);
}
=item * (@COMMON,$subtype,$AFSDBDNAME) = $parse->AFSDB(@common,$subtype,$hostname);
Converts binary/numeric field data into human readable form. The common RR
elements are supplied by the class loader, B<Net::DNS::ToolKit::RR>.
For AFSDB RR's, this returns $hostname terminated with '.'
input: subtype,
AFSDB Domain Name
returns: subtype
AFSDB Domain Name.
