RR::NSEC3PARAM(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation RR::NSEC3PARAM(3)NAMENet::DNS::RR::NSEC3PARAM - DNS NSEC3PARAM resource record
SYNOPSIS
"use Net::DNS::RR;"
DESCRIPTION
Class for DNS Address (NSEC3PARAM) resource records.
The NSEC3PARAM RR contains the NSEC3 parameters (hash algorithm, flags,
iterations and salt) needed to calculate hashed ownernames. The
presence of an NSEC3PARAM RR at a zone apex indicates that the
specified parameters may be used by authoritative servers to choose an
appropriate set of NSEC3 records for negative responses.
METHODS
hashalgo
Reads and sets the hashalgo (hash algorithm) attribute.
flags
Reads and sets the flag field. Check the IANA registry for valid
values. At the time of code release the only defined value was 0x00
iterations
Reads and sets the iterations field
salt
Reads and sets the salt value. Accepts and returns a string with a
number in hexadecimal notation.
