=head1 NAME

Net::DNS::Header - DNS packet header class

=head1 SYNOPSIS

C<use Net::DNS::Header;>

=head1 DESCRIPTION

A C<Net::DNS::Header> object represents the header portion of a DNS
packet.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 new

    $header = Net::DNS::Header->new;

C<new> creates a header object appropriate for making a DNS query.

			opcode	=> $Net::DNS::opcodesbyval{0},

			rcode	=> $Net::DNS::rcodesbyval{0},
			qdcount	=> 0,
			ancount	=> 0,
			nscount	=> 0,
			arcount	=> 0,
			};

	bless $self, $class;
}


=head2 parse

    ($header, $offset) = Net::DNS::Header->parse(\$data);

Parses the header record at the start of a DNS packet.
The argument is a reference to the packet data.

Returns a Net::DNS::Header object and the offset of the next location
in the packet.

Parsing is aborted if the header object cannot be created (e.g.,
corrupt or insufficient data).

#
# Some people have reported that Net::DNS dies because AUTOLOAD picks up
# calls to DESTROY.

=head2 id

    print "query id = ", $header->id, "\n";
    $header->id(1234);

Gets or sets the query identification number.

=head2 qr

    print "query response flag = ", $header->qr, "\n";
    $header->qr(0);

Gets or sets the query response flag.

=head2 opcode

    print "query opcode = ", $header->opcode, "\n";
    $header->opcode("UPDATE");

Gets or sets the query opcode (the purpose of the query).

=head2 aa

    print "answer is ", $header->aa ? "" : "non-", "authoritative\n";
    $header->aa(0);

Gets or sets the authoritative answer flag.

=head2 tc

    print "packet is ", $header->tc ? "" : "not ", "truncated\n";
    $header->tc(0);

Gets or sets the truncated packet flag.

=head2 rd

    print "recursion was ", $header->rd ? "" : "not ", "desired\n";
    $header->rd(0);

Gets or sets the recursion desired flag.

In dynamic update packets, this field is known as C<zocount> and refers
to the number of RRs in the zone section.

=head2 ancount, prcount

    print "# of answer records: ", $header->ancount, "\n";
    $header->ancount(5);

Gets or sets the number of records in the answer section of the packet.
In dynamic update packets, this field is known as C<prcount> and refers
to the number of RRs in the prerequisite section.

=head2 nscount, upcount

    print "# of authority records: ", $header->nscount, "\n";
    $header->nscount(2);

Gets or sets the number of records in the authority section of the packet.
