DESCRIPTION

30       EDNS OPT pseudo resource record.
31
32       The OPT record supports EDNS protocol extensions and is not intended to
33       be created, accessed or modified directly by user applications.
34
35       All EDNS features are performed indirectly by operations on the objects
36       returned by the $packet->header and $packet->edns creator methods.  The
37       underlying mechanisms are entirely hidden from the user.
38

METHODS

40       The available methods are those inherited from the base class augmented
41       by the type-specific methods defined in this package.
42
43       Use of undocumented package features or direct access to internal data
44       structures is discouraged and could result in program termination or
45       other unpredictable behaviour.
46
47   version
48           $version = $rr->version;
49           $rr->version( $version );
50
51       The version of EDNS supported by this OPT record.
52
53   size
54               $size = $packet->edns->size;
55               $more = $packet->edns->size(1280);
56
57       size() advertises the maximum size (octets) of UDP packet that can be
58       reassembled in the network stack of the originating host.
59
60   rcode
61               $extended_rcode   = $packet->header->rcode;
62               $incomplete_rcode = $packet->edns->rcode;
63
64       The 12 bit extended RCODE. The most significant 8 bits reside in the
65       OPT record. The least significant 4 bits can only be obtained from the
66       packet header.
67
68   flags
69               $edns_flags = $packet->edns->flags;
70
71               $do = $packet->header->do;
72               $packet->header->do(1);
73
74       16 bit field containing EDNS extended header flags.
75
76   options, option
77               @option = $packet->edns->options;
78
79               $octets = $packet->edns->option($option_code);
80
81               $packet->edns->option( COOKIE => $octets );
82               $packet->edns->option( 10     => $octets );
83
84       When called in a list context, options() returns a list of option codes
85       found in the OPT record.
86
87       When called in a scalar context with a single argument, option()
88       returns the uninterpreted octet string corresponding to the specified
89       option.  The method returns undef if the specified option is absent.
90
91       Options can be added or replaced by providing the (name => value) pair.
92       The option is deleted if the value is undefined.
93
94       When option() is called in a list context with a single argument, the
95       returned values provide a structured interpretation appropriate to the
96       specified option.
97
98       For example:
99
100               @algorithms = $packet->edns->option('DAU');
101
102       For some options, a hash table is more convenient:
103
104               %hash_table = $packet->edns->option(15);
105               $info_code  = $hash_table{'INFO-CODE'};
106               $extra_text = $hash_table{'EXTRA-TEXT'};
107
108       Similar forms of array or hash syntax may be used to construct the
109       option value:
110
111               $packet->edns->option( DHU => [1, 2, 4] );
112
113               $packet->edns->option( EXPIRE => {'EXPIRE-TIMER' => 604800} );
