Struct DnsResponse 

pub struct DnsResponse { /* private fields */ }

A DNS response object

For Most DNS requests, only one response is expected, the exception is a multicast request.

Implementations

impl DnsResponse

pub fn from_message(message: Message) -> Result<DnsResponse, ProtoError>

Constructs a new DnsResponse with a buffer synthesized from the message

pub fn from_buffer(buffer: Vec<u8>) -> Result<DnsResponse, ProtoError>

Constructs a new DnsResponse by parsing a message from a buffer.

Returns an error if the response message cannot be decoded.

pub fn soa(&self) -> Option<RecordRef<'_, SOA>>

Retrieves the SOA from the response. This will only exist if it was an authoritative response.

pub fn negative_ttl(&self) -> Option<u32>

Looks in the authority section for an SOA record from the response, and returns the negative_ttl, None if not available.

5 - Caching Negative Answers

  Like normal answers negative answers have a time to live (TTL).  As
  there is no record in the answer section to which this TTL can be
  applied, the TTL must be carried by another method.  This is done by
  including the SOA record from the zone in the authority section of
  the reply.  When the authoritative server creates this record its TTL
  is taken from the minimum of the SOA.MINIMUM field and SOA's TTL.
  This TTL decrements in a similar manner to a normal cached answer and
  upon reaching zero (0) indicates the cached negative answer MUST NOT
  be used again.

  A negative answer that resulted from a name error (NXDOMAIN) should
  be cached such that it can be retrieved and returned in response to
  another query for the same <QNAME, QCLASS> that resulted in the
  cached negative response.

  A negative answer that resulted from a no data error (NODATA) should
  be cached such that it can be retrieved and returned in response to
  another query for the same <QNAME, QTYPE, QCLASS> that resulted in
  the cached negative response.

  The NXT record, if it exists in the authority section of a negative
  answer received, MUST be stored such that it can be be located and
  returned with SOA record in the authority section, as should any SIG
  records in the authority section.  For NXDOMAIN answers there is no
  "necessary" obvious relationship between the NXT records and the
  QNAME.  The NXT record MUST have the same owner name as the query
  name for NODATA responses.

  Negative responses without SOA records SHOULD NOT be cached as there
  is no way to prevent the negative responses looping forever between a
  pair of servers even with a short TTL.

  Despite the DNS forming a tree of servers, with various mis-
  configurations it is possible to form a loop in the query graph, e.g.
  two servers listing each other as forwarders, various lame server
  configurations.  Without a TTL count down a cache negative response
  when received by the next server would have its TTL reset.  This
  negative indication could then live forever circulating between the
  servers involved.

  As with caching positive responses it is sensible for a resolver to
  limit for how long it will cache a negative response as the protocol
  supports caching for up to 68 years.  Such a limit should not be
  greater than that applied to positive answers and preferably be
  tunable.  Values of one to three hours have been found to work well
  and would make sensible a default.  Values exceeding one day have
  been found to be problematic.
