Expand description

A DNS request object

This wraps a DNS Message for requests. It also has request options associated for controlling certain features of the DNS protocol handlers.

Implementations

Returns a new DnsRequest object

Returns the query from this Message.

In almost all cases, a Message will only contain one query. This is a convenience function to get the single query. See the alternative queries* methods for the raw set of queries in the Message

Question        Carries the query name and other query parameters.

Provides mutable access to queries

Removes all the answers from the Message

RFC 6891, EDNS(0) Extensions, April 2013

6.1.1.  Basic Elements

 An OPT pseudo-RR (sometimes called a meta-RR) MAY be added to the
 additional data section of a request.

 The OPT RR has RR type 41.

 If an OPT record is present in a received request, compliant
 responders MUST include an OPT record in their respective responses.

 An OPT record does not carry any DNS data.  It is used only to
 contain control information pertaining to the question-and-answer
 sequence of a specific transaction.  OPT RRs MUST NOT be cached,
 forwarded, or stored in or loaded from Zone Files.

 The OPT RR MAY be placed anywhere within the additional data section.
 When an OPT RR is included within any DNS message, it MUST be the
 only OPT RR in that message.  If a query message with more than one
 OPT RR is received, a FORMERR (RCODE=1) MUST be returned.  The
 placement flexibility for the OPT RR does not override the need for
 the TSIG or SIG(0) RRs to be the last in the additional section
 whenever they are present.
Return value

Optionally returns a reference to EDNS section

👎Deprecated:

Please use extensions_mut(). You can chain .get_or_insert_with(Edns::new) to recover original behavior of adding Edns if not present

Optionally returns mutable reference to EDNS section

Returns reference of Edns section

Returns mutable reference of Edns section

Return value

the max payload value as it’s defined in the EDNS section.

Return value

the version as defined in the EDNS record

RFC 2535, Domain Name System Security Extensions, March 1999

A DNS request may be optionally signed by including one or more SIGs
 at the end of the query. Such SIGs are identified by having a "type
 covered" field of zero. They sign the preceding DNS request message
 including DNS header but not including the IP header or any request
 SIGs at the end and before the request RR counts have been adjusted
 for the inclusions of any request SIG(s).
Return value

The sig0 and tsig, i.e. signed record, for verifying the sending and package integrity

Methods from Deref<Target = Header>

A method to get all header flags (useful for Display purposes)

ID              A 16 bit identifier assigned by the program that
                generates any kind of query.  This identifier is copied
                the corresponding reply and can be used by the requester
                to match up replies to outstanding queries.
QR              A one bit field that specifies whether this message is a
                query (0), or a response (1).
OPCODE          A four bit field that specifies kind of query in this
                message.  This value is set by the originator of a query
                and copied into the response.  The values are: <see super::op_code>
AA              Authoritative Answer - this bit is valid in responses,
                and specifies that the responding name server is an
                authority for the domain name in question section.

                Note that the contents of the answer section may have
                multiple owner names because of aliases.  The AA bit
                corresponds to the name which matches the query name, or
                the first owner name in the answer section.
TC              TrunCation - specifies that this message was truncated
                due to length greater than that permitted on the
                transmission channel.
RD              Recursion Desired - this bit may be set in a query and
                is copied into the response.  If RD is set, it directs
                the name server to pursue the query recursively.
                Recursive query support is optional.
RA              Recursion Available - this be is set or cleared in a
                response, and denotes whether recursive query support is
                available in the name server.

RFC 4035, DNSSEC Resource Records, March 2005


3.1.6.  The AD and CD Bits in an Authoritative Response

  The CD and AD bits are designed for use in communication between
  security-aware resolvers and security-aware recursive name servers.
  These bits are for the most part not relevant to query processing by
  security-aware authoritative name servers.

  A security-aware name server does not perform signature validation
  for authoritative data during query processing, even when the CD bit
  is clear.  A security-aware name server SHOULD clear the CD bit when
  composing an authoritative response.

  A security-aware name server MUST NOT set the AD bit in a response
  unless the name server considers all RRsets in the Answer and
  Authority sections of the response to be authentic.  A security-aware
  name server's local policy MAY consider data from an authoritative
  zone to be authentic without further validation.  However, the name
  server MUST NOT do so unless the name server obtained the
  authoritative zone via secure means (such as a secure zone transfer
  mechanism) and MUST NOT do so unless this behavior has been
  configured explicitly.

  A security-aware name server that supports recursion MUST follow the
  rules for the CD and AD bits given in Section 3.2 when generating a
  response that involves data obtained via recursion.

see is_authentic_data()

RCODE           Response code - this 4 bit field is set as part of
                responses.  The values have the following
                interpretation: <see super::response_code>
QDCOUNT         an unsigned 16 bit integer specifying the number of
                entries in the question section.
Return value

If this is a query, this will return the number of queries in the query section of the

ANCOUNT         an unsigned 16 bit integer specifying the number of
                resource records in the answer section.
Return value

For query responses this is the number of records in the answer section, should be 0 for requests, for updates this is the count of prerequisite records.

for queries this is the nameservers which are authorities for the SOA of the Record for updates this is the update record count

NSCOUNT         an unsigned 16 bit integer specifying the number of name
                server resource records in the authority records
                section.
Return value

For query responses this is the number of authorities, or nameservers, in the name server section, for updates this is the number of update records being sent.

ARCOUNT         an unsigned 16 bit integer specifying the number of
                resource records in the additional records section.
Return value

This is the additional record section count, this section may include EDNS options.
