NAME

dnssrv - Tcl DNS SRV Client

SYNOPSIS

package require dnssrv

::dnssrv::hostlist query ?options?
::dnssrv::tophost query ?options?

DESCRIPTION

The dnssrv package provides a Tcl client for querying DNS SRV records. You should refer to RFC 2782 for information about DNS SRV records.

COMMANDS

::dnssrv::hostlist query ?options?

Return an ordered list of hostnames from a DNS SRV RR recordset resolved from DNS. Query should be a fully qualified domain name in the form expected for a DNS SRV record resembling _service._protocol.example.org

The list will be properly sorted and randomized to accommodate the advertised priority and weighting values from the underlying RR recordset in DNS.

The -ports option will append the advertised port number as part of the hostname in the form hostname.example.org:port

::dnssrv::tophost query ?options?

Returns a single hostname which represents the top-ordered host from the hostlist for use where only a single hostname is desired.
