Well the presentation form clearly is designed for printable ASCII to be rendered as ASCII. > Example: > > use Net::DNS; > > my $rr = new Net::DNS::RR <<'END'; > example.net. 300 IN HTTPS 1 target.example.net. > mandatory=key0,key1,alpn,no-default-alpn,key99 ; with duplications > and other sins > alpn=h3-29,h3-28,h3-27,h2 > no-default-alpn > port=1234 > ipv4hint=192.0.2.1,192.0.2.2 > echconfig=base64string > ipv6hint=2001:DB8::1,2001:DB8::2 > END > > $rr->print; > > produces: > > example.net. 300 IN HTTPS ( \# 126 0001 > 06746172676574076578616d706c6503 6e657400 ; target.example.net. > 0000 0004 00010002 Which is a interesting conversion of "mandatory=key0,key1,alpn,no-default-alpn,key99”. I would expect the parser to reject the record as mandatory contains “key0” in the list. I would also expect the parser to reject the record as there is no “key99” in the record. I would never expect the parser to strip out keys listed in mandatory just because they are not present in the rest of the record. > 0001 0015 0568332d32390568332d32380568332d 3237026832 > 0002 0000 > 0003 0002 04d2 > 0004 0008 c0000201c0000202 > 0005 0009 6dab1eeb8b2dae29e0 > 0006 0020 20010db8000000000000000000000001 > 20010db8000000000000000000000002 > ) > > Observations and complaints gratefully received. > > --Dick > _______________________________________________ > DNSOP mailing list > DNSOP@ietf.org > https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop > _______________________________________________ > DNSOP mailing list > DNSOP@ietf.org > https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop -- Mark Andrews, ISC 1 Seymour St., Dundas Valley, NSW 2117, Australia PHONE: +61 2 9871 4742 INTERNET: ma...@isc.org _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
