Net::N...eQuery(3pm)

✨ NAME ✨

Net::NBName::NameQuery — it's giving NetBIOS Name Query Response energy, bestie 💅

(and yeah, this lil page lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, fyi 🫶)

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so. Net::NBName::NameQuery is a whole object that represents a decoded NetBIOS name query response ✨

like, somebody asked "who's out there for this name?" and this is the vibe-checked, decoded answer. that's it, that's the girl 💖

🎀 METHODS 🎀

• $nq->addresses — returns a list of ip addresses returned for the queried name 👑 and they come back as a list of Net::NBName::NameQuery::RR records, no cap.

ngl most name queries will only return one ip address, bestie. but you will get multiple ip addresses returned for names registered by multihomed hosts or for group name queries — so don't come for the list like it did something wrong 💀

• $nq->ttl — Time to live 🕰️ literally the lifespan of the name registration. that's the whole thing. that's the vibe.
• $nq->RA — Recursion available 🔄 this flag is typically set if the responding host is an NBNS server, and it can be used to determine if it was an NBNS server that responded 👀 so like... detective work. main character energy fr fr.
• $nq->as_string — Returns the object's string representation 🧚 cute, compact, iconic.
