The URI record is expressed in a master file in the following format: _service._proto.name. TTL class URI priority weight target. where: the symbolic name of the desired service. the transport protocol of the desired service; this is usually either TCP or UDP. the domain name for which this record is valid, ending in a dot.
A DNS zone is a subset, often a single domain, of the hierarchical domain name structure of the DNS. The zone file contains mappings between domain names and IP addresses and other resources, organized in the form of text representations of resource records (RR). A zone file may be either a DNS master file, authoritatively describing a zone, or ...
DNS record types could be created and used to register what port a webpage is on. For example: My webpage would have two DNS records. Record Type "A" host record, www.example.com = 127.0.0.1 Record Type "porthttp" port record, www.example.com = 80.
LOC record. In the Domain Name System, a LOC record (experimental RFC 1876) is a means for expressing geographic location information for a domain name . It contains WGS84 Latitude, Longitude and Altitude ( ellipsoidal height) information together with host/ subnet physical size and location accuracy. This information can be queried by other ...
NAPTR record. A Name Authority Pointer ( NAPTR) is a type of resource record in the Domain Name System of the Internet. [1] [2] NAPTR records are most commonly used for applications in Internet telephony, for example, in the mapping of servers and user addresses in the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). The combination of NAPTR records with ...
TSIG ( transaction signature) is a computer-networking protocol defined in RFC 2845. Primarily it enables the Domain Name System (DNS) to authenticate updates to a DNS database. It is most commonly used to update Dynamic DNS or a secondary/slave DNS server. TSIG uses shared secret keys and one-way hashing to provide a cryptographically secure ...
A top-level domain ( TLD) is one of the domains at the highest level in the hierarchical Domain Name System of the Internet after the root domain. [9] The top-level domain names are installed in the root zone of the name space. For all domains in lower levels, it is the last part of the domain name, that is, the last non-empty label of a fully ...
The method described by RFC 2136 is a network protocol for use with managed DNS servers, and it includes a security mechanism. RFC 2136 supports all DNS record types, but often it is used only as an extension of the DHCP system, and in which the authorized DHCP servers register the client records in the DNS. This form of support for RFC 2136 is ...
