+# Project 2 Framework

+

+## Description

+

+This directory contains a framework for a DNS resolver and a recursive DNS server.

+The framework provides classes for manipulating DNS messages (and converting them to bytes).

+The framework also contains a few stubs which you need to implement.

+Most files contain pointers to the relevant sections of RFC 1034 and RFC 1035.

+These are not the only relevant sections though, and you might need to read more of the RFCs.

+

+It is probably a good idea to read RFC 1034 before proceeding.

+This RFC explains an overview of DNS and introduces some of the naming which is also used in the framework.

+

+## File structure

+

+* proj1_sn1_sn2

+    * dns

+        * cache.py: Contains a cache for the resolver. You have to implement this.

+        * classes.py: Enum of CLASSes and QCLASSes.

+        * domainname.py: Classes for reading and writing domain names as bytes.

+        * message.py: Classes for DNS messages.

+        * rcodes.py: Enum of RCODEs.

+        * resolver.py: Class for a DNS resolver. You have to implement this.

+        * resource.py: Classes for DNS resource records.

+        * server.py: Contains a DNS server. You have to implement this.

+        * types.py: Enum of TYPEs and QTYPEs.

+        * zone.py: name space zones. You have to implement this.

+    * dns_client.py: A simple DNS client, which serves as an example user of the resolver.

+    * dns_server.py: Code for starting the DNS server and parsing args.

+    * dns_tests.py: Tests for your resolver, cache and server. You have to implement this.

+

+## Implementation Hints and Tips

+

+You should start with implementing the resolver, which you need for the server.

+You will need message.py, resource.py, types.py, classes.py and rcodes.py.

+You can ignore the code for converting from and to bytes from these files if

+you want, but it might be useful (especially for debugging).

+

+After finishing the resolver you need to implement caching and the DNS server.

+You can implement these in any order that you like.

+I suggest implementing the recursive part (the resolving) of your DNS server, before implementing the management of the servers zone.

+

+Wireshark and dns_client.py are useful tools for debugging your resolver.

+Wireshark and nslookup are useful tools for debugging your server.
