Module agora.common.DNS
Type definitions for implementing and communicating with a DNS server.
The type names may follow RFC1035 rather than our own coding convention, although exceptions are made, e.g. when a field name and type conflict. Comments have been copied from RFC1035 verbatim.
Extensions to RFC1035, such as the RFC linked below, are currently not implemented.
