A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 8427 Title: Representing DNS Messages in JSON Author: P. Hoffman Status: Informational Stream: IETF Date: July 2018 Mailbox: paul.hoffman@icann.org Pages: 15 Characters: 30517 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-hoffman-dns-in-json-16.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8427 DOI: 10.17487/RFC8427 Some applications use DNS messages, or parts of DNS messages, as data. For example, a system that captures DNS queries and responses might want to be able to easily search them without having to decode the messages each time. Another example is a system that puts together DNS queries and responses from message parts. This document describes a general format for DNS message data in JSON. Specific profiles of the format in this document can be described in other documents for specific applications and usage scenarios.
