💅 NAME 💅

Net::DNS::RR::EUI64 — the DNS EUI64 resource record, bestie. That's it, that's the whole vibe. It lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, so like… a real one 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so here's how you actually use it, no cap:

        use Net::DNS;
        $rr = Net::DNS::RR->new('name IN EUI64 address');

        $rr = Net::DNS::RR->new(
                        name    => 'example.com',
                        type    => 'EUI64',
                        address => '00-00-5e-ef-10-00-00-2a'
                        );

two ways to do the exact same thing — pick your fighter 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So DNS resource records for 64-bit Extended Unique Identifier (EUI64). Literally what it says on the tin.

The EUI64 resource record is used to represent IEEE Extended Unique Identifiers used in various layer-2 networks — ethernet for example. iconic of them honestly 🦋

⚠️ EUI64 addresses SHOULD NOT be published in the public DNS. Fr fr. RFC7043 describes potentially severe privacy implications resulting from indiscriminate publication of link-layer addresses in the DNS. Like… don't do it. Not the move. 😭

🎀 METHODS 🎀

The available methods are those inherited from the base class, augmented by the type-specific methods defined in this package. So you get the whole family package plus these extras 💖

🚨 Use of undocumented package features or direct access to internal data structures is discouraged and could result in program termination or other unpredictable behaviour. bestie do NOT go poking around in the internals, it's giving chaos and the program will literally just die on you 💀

💅 address

The address field is an 8-octet layer-2 address in network byte order. The presentation format is hexadecimal separated by -. That's the whole rule. Slay. ⭐
