-# 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.
