Library dns
Module Dns
type proto = [
| `Tcp

]

The type of supported protocols. Used by Packet.encode to decide on maximum buffer length, etc.

val max_rdata_length : int

Maximum size of resource data. This limitation is close to (2 ^ 16) - 1 (the limit of DNS-over-TCP and EDNS payload size, but slightly smaller, since an rdata must fit into this DNS message together with a DNS header, a question, and a TSIG signature (for e.g. zone transfer).
