Message Rcodes

A DNS Rcode describes the result of a DNS request. If EDNS is not in use, then the rcode is encoded solely in the DNS header. If EDNS is in use, then the rcode is encoded using bits form both the header and the EDNS OPT RR.

flags, an int, the DNS flags field.

ednsflags, an int, the EDNS flags field.

Raises ValueError if rcode is < 0 or > 4095

Returns a dns.rcode.Rcode.

dns.rcode.to_flags(value: Rcode) → Tuple[int, int]

Return a (flags, ednsflags) tuple which encodes the rcode.

value, a dns.rcode.Rcode, the rcode.

Raises ValueError if rcode is < 0 or > 4095.
