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.
TKEY record. TKEY (transaction key) is a record type of the Domain Name System (DNS). TKEY resource records (RRs) can be used in a number of different modes to establish shared keys between a DNS resolver and name server .
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 .

SSHFP record. A Secure Shell fingerprint record (abbreviated as SSHFP record) is a type of resource record in the Domain Name System (DNS) which identifies SSH keys that are associated with a host name. The acquisition of an SSHFP record needs to be secured with a mechanism such as DNSSEC for a chain of trust to be established.
DNS Certification Authority Authorization ( CAA) is an Internet security policy mechanism that allows domain name holders to indicate to certificate authorities whether they are authorized to issue digital certificates for a particular domain name. It does this by means of a "CAA" Domain Name System (DNS) resource record .

It is a zero-configuration service, using essentially the same programming interfaces, packet formats and operating semantics as unicast Domain Name System (DNS).
