IPSECKEY : IPSEC Key ( RFC 4025)
Key record that can be used with IPSEC |
IXFR : Incremental Zone Transfer ( RFC 1995)
Requests a zone transfer of the given zone but only differences from a previous serial number. This request may be ignored and a full (AXFR) sent in response if the authoritative server is unable to fulfill the request due to configuration or lack of required deltas. |
LOC : Location record ( RFC 1876)
Specifies a geographical location associated with a domain name |
TKEY : Transaction Key ( RFC 2930)
One way of providing a key to be used with TSIG |
AXFR : Full Zone Transfer ( RFC 1035)
Transfer entire zone file from the master name server to secondary name servers. |
* : All cached records ( RFC 1035)
Returns all records of all types known to the name server. If the name server does not have any information on the name, the request will be forwarded on. The records returned may not be complete. For example, if there is both an A and an MX for a name, but the name server has only the A record cached, only the A record will be returned. |
SIG : Signature ( RFC 2535)
Signature record used in SIG(0) (RFC 2931). Until RFC 3755 was published, the SIG record was part of DNSSEC; now RRSIG is used for that. |
DNAME : delegation name ( RFC 2672)
DNAME will delegate an entire portion of the DNS tree under a new name. In contrast, the CNAME record creates an alias of a single name. Like the CNAME record, the DNS lookup will continue by retrying the lookup with the new name. |
AAAA : IPv6 address record ( RFC 3596)
Returns a 128-bit IPv6 address, most commonly used to map hostnames to an IP address of the host. |
OPT : Option ( RFC 2671)
This is a 'pseudo DNS record type' needed to support EDNS |
CERT : Certificate record ( RFC 4398)
Stores PKIX, SPKI, PGP, etc. |
NAPTR : Naming Authority Pointer ( RFC 3403)
Allows regular expression based rewriting of domain names which can then be used as URIs, further domain names to lookups, etc. |
|
TA : DNSSEC Trust Authorities (None)
Part of a deployment proposal for DNSSEC without a signed DNS root. See the IANA database and Weiler Spec] for details. Uses the same format as the DS record.
|
SOA : start of authority record ( RFC 1035)
Specifies authoritative information about a DNS zone, including the primary name server, the email of the domain administrator, the domain serial number, and several timers relating to refreshing the zone. |
DHCID : DHCP identifier ( RFC 4701)
Used in conjunction with the FQDN option to DHCP |
DLV : DNSSEC Lookaside Validation record ( RFC 4431)
For publishing DNSSEC trust anchors outside of the DNS delegation chain. Uses the same format as the DS record. RFC 5074 describes a way of using these records. |
NSEC3 : NSEC record version 3 ( RFC 5155)
An extension to DNSSEC that allows proof of nonexistence for a name without permitting zonewalking |
DNSKEY : DNS Key record ( RFC 4034)
The key record used in DNSSEC. Uses the same format as the KEY record. |
