Method Detail

Net_DNS_Resolver (Constructor)   [line 260]

Net_DNS_Resolver Net_DNS_Resolver( [ $defaults = array()])

Initializes the Resolver Object

Parameters:

   $defaults   — 

[ Top ]

axfr   [line 1200]

object Net_DNS_Packet axfr( string $dname, [string $class = 'IN'], [boolean $old = false])

Performs an AXFR query (zone transfer)

Requests a zone transfer from the nameservers. Note that zone transfers will ALWAYS use TCP regardless of the setting of the Net_DNS_Resolver::$usevc flag. If $old is set to true, Net_DNS requires a nameserver that supports the many-answers style transfer format. Large zone transfers will not function properly. Setting $old to true is _NOT_ recommended and should only be used for backwards compatibility.

  • Access: public

Parameters:

string   $dname   —  The domain (zone) to transfer
string   $class   —  The class in which to look for the zone.
boolean   $old   —  Requires 'old' style many-answer format to function.

axfr_next   [line 1320]

object Net_DNS_RR axfr_next( )

Requests the next RR from a existing transfer started with axfr_start

[ Top ]

axfr_old   [line 1177]

send   [line 696]

object Net_DNS_Packet send( string $packetORname, [string $qtype = ''], [string $qclass = ''])

Sends a packet to a nameserver

Determines the appropriate communication method (UDP or TCP) and sends a DNS packet to a nameserver. Use of the this function directly is discouraged. $packetORname should always be a properly formatted binary DNS packet. However, it is possible to send a query here and bypass Net_DNS_Resolver::query()

  • Return: An answer packet object

Parameters:

string   $packetORname   —  A binary DNS packet stream or a hostname to query
string   $qtype   —  This should not be used
string   $qclass   —  This should not be used

string   $packet   —  A packet object to send to the NS list
string   $packet_data   —  The data in the packet as returned by the Net_DNS_Packet::data() method

[ Top ]

send_udp   [line 1112]

object Net_DNS_Packet send_udp( object Net_DNS_Packet $packet, string $packet_data)

Sends a packet via UDP to the list of name servers.

This function sends a packet to a nameserver. send_udp calls either Net_DNS_Resolver::send_udp_no_sock_lib() or Net_DNS_Resolver::send_udp_with_sock_lib() depending on whether or not the sockets extension is compiled into PHP. Note that using the sockets extension is MUCH more efficient.


Parameters:

object Net_DNS_Packet   $packet   —  A packet object to send to the NS list
string   $packet_data   —  The data in the packet as returned by the Net_DNS_Packet::data() method

[ Top ]

send_udp_no_sock_lib   [line 863]

object Net_DNS_Packet send_udp_no_sock_lib( string $packet, string $packet_data)

Parameters:

string   $packet   —  A packet object to send to the NS list
string   $packet_data   —  The data in the packet as returned by the Net_DNS_Packet::data() method

[ Top ]

send_udp_with_sock_lib   [line 981]

object Net_DNS_Packet send_udp_with_sock_lib( string $packet, string $packet_data)
