=head1 NAME

Net::DNS::Packet - DNS packet object class

=head1 SYNOPSIS

C<use Net::DNS::Packet;>

=head1 DESCRIPTION

A C<Net::DNS::Packet> object represents a DNS packet.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 new

    $packet = Net::DNS::Packet->new("example.com");
    $packet = Net::DNS::Packet->new("example.com", "MX", "IN");

    $packet = Net::DNS::Packet->new(\$data);
    $packet = Net::DNS::Packet->new(\$data, 1);  # set debugging

    ($packet, $err) = Net::DNS::Packet->new(\$data);

    $packet = Net::DNS::Packet->new();

If passed a domain, type, and class, C<new> creates a packet
object appropriate for making a DNS query for the requested
information.  The type and class can be omitted; they default
to A and IN.

If passed a reference to a scalar containing DNS packet data,
C<new> creates a packet object from that data.  A second argument
can be passed to turn on debugging output for packet parsing.

If called in array context, returns a packet object and an
error string.  The error string will only be defined if the
packet object is undefined (i.e., couldn't be created).

Returns B<undef> if unable to create a packet object (e.g., if
the packet data is truncated).

If called with an empty argument list, C<new> creates an empty packet.

a nameserver.

=head2 question, zone

    @question = $packet->question;

Returns a list of C<Net::DNS::Question> objects representing the
question section of the packet.

=head2 answer, pre, prerequisite

    @answer = $packet->answer;

Returns a list of C<Net::DNS::RR> objects representing the answer
section of the packet.

In dynamic update packets, this section is known as C<pre> or
C<prerequisite> and specifies the RRs or RRsets which must or
must not preexist.

=head2 authority, update

    @authority = $packet->authority;

Returns a list of C<Net::DNS::RR> objects representing the authority
section of the packet.

In dynamic update packets, this section is known as C<update> and
specifies the RRs or RRsets to be added or deleted.

=cut

sub update { &authority }

=head2 additional

    @additional = $packet->additional;

Returns a list of C<Net::DNS::RR> objects representing the additional
section of the packet.

=cut

Expands the domain name stored at a particular location in a DNS
packet.  The first argument is a reference to a scalar containing
the packet data.  The second argument is the offset within the

Returns the domain name and the offset of the next location in the
packet.

Returns B<(undef)> if the domain name couldn't be expanded.

=head2 sign_tsig

    $update->sign_tsig($key_name, $key);

    $response = $res->send($update);

Signs a packet with a TSIG resource record (see RFC 2845).  Uses the
following defaults:

    algorithm   = HMAC-MD5.SIG-ALG.REG.INT
    time_signed = current time
    fudge       = 300 seconds

If you wish to customize the TSIG record, you'll have to create it
yourself and call the appropriate Net::DNS::RR::TSIG methods.  The
following example creates a TSIG record and sets the fudge to 60
seconds:

    $key_name = "tsig-key";
    $key      = "awwLOtRfpGE+rRKF2+DEiw==";

    $tsig = Net::DNS::RR->new("$key_name TSIG $key");
    $tsig->fudge(60);

    $query = Net::DNS::Packet->new("www.example.com");
    $query->sign_tsig($tsig);

    $response = $res->send($query);

You shouldn't modify a packet after signing it; otherwise authentication
will probably fail.

SIG0 support is provided through the Net::DNS::RR::SIG class. This class is not part
of the default Net::DNS distribution but resides in the Net::DNS::SEC distribution.

SIG0 support is experimental see Net::DNS::RR::SIG for details.

The method will call C<Carp::croak()> if Net::DNS::RR::SIG cannot be found.

=head2 truncate

The truncate method takes a maximum length as argument and then tries
to truncate the packet an set the TC bit according to the rules of
RFC2181 Section 9.

The minimum maximum length that is honored is 512 octets.

=cut

# From RFC2181:
#9. The TC (truncated) header bit
#
#   The TC bit should be set in responses only when an RRSet is required
#   as a part of the response, but could not be included in its entirety.
#   The TC bit should not be set merely because some extra information
#   could have been included, but there was insufficient room.  This
#   includes the results of additional section processing.  In such cases
#   the entire RRSet that will not fit in the response should be omitted,
#   and the reply sent as is, with the TC bit clear.  If the recipient of
#   the reply needs the omitted data, it can construct a query for that
#   data and send that separately.
#
#   Where TC is set, the partial RRSet that would not completely fit may
#   be left in the response.  When a DNS client receives a reply with TC
#   set, it should ignore that response, and query again, using a
#   mechanism, such as a TCP connection, that will permit larger replies.

# Code inspired on a contribution from Aaron Crane via rt.cpan.org 33547
