Description-en: DNS toolkit for Python
dnspython is a DNS toolkit for Python. It supports almost all record types. It
can be used for queries, zone transfers, and dynamic updates. It supports TSIG
authenticated messages and EDNS0.
.
dnspython provides both high and low level access to DNS. The high level
classes perform queries for data of a given name, type, and class, and return
an answer set. The low level classes allow direct manipulation of DNS zones,
messages, names, and records.
