@classmethod
def fromServerAddressAndDomain(cls, serverAddress, domain): (source)

Construct a new SecondaryAuthority from a tuple giving a server address and a bytes giving the name of a domain for which this is an authority.

Parameters
serverAddressA two-tuple, the first element of which is a str giving an IP address and the second element of which is a int giving a port number. Together, these define where zone transfers will be attempted from.
domain:bytesA bytes giving the domain to transfer.
Returns
A new instance of SecondaryAuthority.
def __init__(self, primaryIP, domain): (source)
overrides twisted.names.authority.FileAuthority.__init__
Parameters
primaryIPUndocumented
domain:bytes or strThe domain for which this will be the secondary authority.
def transfer(self): (source)

Attempt a zone transfer.

Returns
A Deferred that fires with None when attempted zone transfer has completed.
def update(self): (source)

Undocumented

domain: bytes = (source)

The domain for which this is the secondary authority.

primary: str = (source)

The IP address of the server from which zone transfers will be attempted.

def _lookup(self, name, cls, type, timeout=None): (source)
overrides twisted.names.authority.FileAuthority._lookup

Determine a response to a particular DNS query.

Parameters
name:bytesThe name which is being queried and for which to lookup a response.
cls:intThe class which is being queried. Only IN is implemented here and this value is presently disregarded.
type:intThe type of records being queried. See the types defined in twisted.names.dns.
timeoutAll processing is done locally and a result is available immediately, so the timeout value is ignored.
Returns
A Deferred that fires with a tuple of three sets of response records (to comprise the answer, authority, and additional sections of a DNS response) or with a Failure if there is a problem processing the query.
_port: int = (source)

The port number of the server from which zone transfers will be attempted.

_reactor = (source)

The reactor to use to perform the zone transfers, or None to use the global reactor.
