DNS CLASSes

Expert(s)

Petr Špaček, Ladislav Lhotka

Reference

[RFC6895][RFC9108]

Note

As noted in [RFC6762], Multicast DNS can only carry DNS records with classes in the range 0-32767. 
Classes in the range 32768 to 65535 are incompatible with Multicast DNS.

Note

When this registry is modified, the YANG module [iana-dns-class-rr-type] 
must be updated as defined in [RFC9108].

Footnotes

[1]

In [RFC1002], two types are defined.  It is not clear that these
are in use, though if so their assignment does conflict with those 
above.

NB      32      NetBIOS general Name Service
NBSTAT  33      NetBIOS NODE STATUS

[2]

From [RFC8552, Section 4.1.3 _ta]:
      
Under the NULL RR, the entry "_ta-*" denotes all node names beginning
with the string "_ta-*". It does NOT refer to a DNS wildcard
specification.
