Typedefs
otDnsAddressCallback
void(* otDnsAddressCallback)(otError aError, const otDnsAddressResponse *aResponse, void *aContext)
Pointer is called when a DNS response is received for an address resolution query.
Within this callback the user can use otDnsAddressResponseGet{Item}()
functions along with the aResponse
pointer to get more info about the response.
The aResponse
pointer can only be used within this callback and after returning from this function it will not stay valid, so the user MUST NOT retain the aResponse
pointer for later use.
The aError
can have the following:

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Parameters |
|
- OT_ERROR_NONE A response was received successfully.
- OT_ERROR_ABORT A DNS transaction was aborted by stack.
- OT_ERROR_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT No DNS response has been received within timeout.
If the server rejects the address resolution request the error code from server is mapped as follow:
- (0) NOERROR Success (no error condition) -> OT_ERROR_NONE
- (1) FORMERR Server unable to interpret due to format error -> OT_ERROR_PARSE
- (2) SERVFAIL Server encountered an internal failure -> OT_ERROR_FAILED
- (3) NXDOMAIN Name that ought to exist, does not exist -> OT_ERROR_NOT_FOUND
- (4) NOTIMP Server does not support the query type (OpCode) -> OT_ERROR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED
- (5) REFUSED Server refused for policy/security reasons -> OT_ERROR_SECURITY

otDnsClientGetDefaultConfig
const otDnsQueryConfig * otDnsClientGetDefaultConfig( otInstance *aInstance )
Gets the current default query config used by DNS client.
When OpenThread stack starts, the default DNS query config is determined from a set of OT config options such as OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_DNS_CLIENT_DEFAULT_SERVER_IP6_ADDRESS
, _DEFAULT_SERVER_PORT
, _DEFAULT_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT
, etc. (see config/dns_client.h
for all related config options).

otDnsClientResolveAddress
otError otDnsClientResolveAddress( otInstance *aInstance, const char *aHostName, otDnsAddressCallback aCallback, void *aContext, const otDnsQueryConfig *aConfig )
Sends an address resolution DNS query for AAAA (IPv6) record(s) for a given host name.
The aConfig
can be NULL. In this case the default config (from otDnsClientGetDefaultConfig()
) will be used as the config for this query. In a non-NULL aConfig
, some of the fields can be left unspecified (value zero). The unspecified fields are then replaced by the values from the default config.

otDnsClientResolveIp4Address
otError otDnsClientResolveIp4Address( otInstance *aInstance, const char *aHostName, otDnsAddressCallback aCallback, void *aContext, const otDnsQueryConfig *aConfig )
Sends an address resolution DNS query for A (IPv4) record(s) for a given host name.
Requires and is available when OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_DNS_CLIENT_NAT64_ENABLE
is enabled.
When a successful response is received, the addresses are returned from aCallback
as NAT64 IPv6 translated versions of the IPv4 addresses from the query response.
The aConfig
can be NULL. In this case the default config (from otDnsClientGetDefaultConfig()
) will be used as the config for this query. In a non-NULL aConfig
, some of the fields can be left unspecified (value zero). The unspecified fields are then replaced by the values from the default config.

otDnsClientResolveService
otError otDnsClientResolveService( otInstance *aInstance, const char *aInstanceLabel, const char *aServiceName, otDnsServiceCallback aCallback, void *aContext, const otDnsQueryConfig *aConfig )
Starts a DNS service instance resolution for a given service instance.
Is available when OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_DNS_CLIENT_SERVICE_DISCOVERY_ENABLE
is enabled.
The aConfig
can be NULL. In this case the default config (from otDnsClientGetDefaultConfig()
) will be used as the config for this query. In a non-NULL aConfig
, some of the fields can be left unspecified (value zero). The unspecified fields are then replaced by the values from the default config.
The function sends queries for SRV and/or TXT records for the given service instance. The mServiceMode
field in otDnsQueryConfig
determines which records to query (SRV only, TXT only, or both SRV and TXT) and how to perform the query (together in the same message, separately in parallel, or in optimized mode where client will try in the same message first and then separately if it fails to get a response).
The SRV record provides information about service port, priority, and weight along with the host name associated with the service instance. This function DOES NOT perform address resolution for the host name discovered from SRV record. The server/resolver may provide AAAA/A record(s) for the host name in the Additional Data section of the response to SRV/TXT query and this information can be retrieved using otDnsServiceResponseGetServiceInfo()
in otDnsServiceCallback
. Users of this API MUST NOT assume that host address will always be available from otDnsServiceResponseGetServiceInfo()
.

otDnsClientResolveServiceAndHostAddress
otError otDnsClientResolveServiceAndHostAddress( otInstance *aInstance, const char *aInstanceLabel, const char *aServiceName, otDnsServiceCallback aCallback, void *aContext, const otDnsQueryConfig *aConfig )
Starts a DNS service instance resolution for a given service instance, with a potential follow-up address resolution for the host name discovered for the service instance.
Is available when OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_DNS_CLIENT_SERVICE_DISCOVERY_ENABLE
is enabled.
The aConfig
can be NULL. In this case the default config (from otDnsClientGetDefaultConfig()
) will be used as the config for this query. In a non-NULL aConfig
, some of the fields can be left unspecified (value zero). The unspecified fields are then replaced by the values from the default config. This function cannot be used with mServiceMode
in DNS config set to OT_DNS_SERVICE_MODE_TXT
(i.e., querying for TXT record only) and will return OT_ERROR_INVALID_ARGS
.
Behaves similarly to otDnsClientResolveService()
sending queries for SRV and TXT records. However, if the server/resolver does not provide AAAA/A records for the host name in the response to SRV query (in the Additional Data section), it will perform host name resolution (sending an AAAA query) for the discovered host name from the SRV record. The callback aCallback
is invoked when responses for all queries are received (i.e., both service and host address resolutions are finished).

Parameters |

||||||||||||
Return Values |
|
otDnsClientSetDefaultConfig
void otDnsClientSetDefaultConfig( otInstance *aInstance, const otDnsQueryConfig *aConfig )
Sets the default query config on DNS client.
The aConfig
can be NULL. In this case the default config will be set to the defaults from OT config options OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_DNS_CLIENT_DEFAULT_{}
. This resets the default query config back to to the config when the OpenThread stack starts.
In a non-NULL aConfig
, caller can choose to leave some of the fields in otDnsQueryConfig
instance unspecified (value zero). The unspecified fields are replaced by the corresponding OT config option definitions OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_DNS_CLIENT_DEFAULT_{}
to form the default query config.
When OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_DNS_CLIENT_DEFAULT_SERVER_ADDRESS_AUTO_SET_ENABLE
is enabled, the server's IPv6 address in the default config is automatically set and updated by DNS client. This is done only when user does not explicitly set or specify it. This behavior requires SRP client and its auto-start feature to be enabled. SRP client will then monitor the Thread Network Data for DNS/SRP Service entries to select an SRP server. The selected SRP server address is also set as the DNS server address in the default config.

otDnsGetNextTxtEntry
otError otDnsGetNextTxtEntry( otDnsTxtEntryIterator *aIterator, otDnsTxtEntry *aEntry )
Parses the TXT data from an iterator and gets the next TXT record entry (key/value pair).
The aIterator
MUST be initialized using otDnsInitTxtEntryIterator()
before calling this function and the TXT data buffer used to initialize the iterator MUST persist and remain unchanged. Otherwise the behavior of this function is undefined.
If the parsed key string length is smaller than or equal to OT_DNS_TXT_KEY_ITER_MAX_LENGTH
the key string is returned in mKey
in aEntry
. But if the key is longer, then mKey
is set to NULL and the entire encoded TXT entry string is returned in mValue

otDnsServiceResponseGetHostAddress
otError otDnsServiceResponseGetHostAddress( const otDnsServiceResponse *aResponse, const char *aHostName, uint16_t aIndex, otIp6Address *aAddress, uint32_t *aTtl )
Gets the host IPv6 address from a DNS service instance resolution response.
MUST only be used from otDnsServiceCallback
.
The response can include zero or more IPv6 address records. aIndex
can be used to iterate through the list of addresses. Index zero gets the first address and so on. When we reach end of the list, OT_ERROR_NOT_FOUND
is returned.

Return Values |
|
otDnsServiceResponseGetServiceInfo
otError otDnsServiceResponseGetServiceInfo( const otDnsServiceResponse *aResponse, otDnsServiceInfo *aServiceInfo )
Gets info for a service instance from a DNS service instance resolution response.
MUST only be used from a otDnsServiceCallback
triggered from otDnsClientResolveService()
or otDnsClientResolveServiceAndHostAddress()
.
When this is is used from a otDnsClientResolveService()
callback, the DNS response from server/resolver may include AAAA records in its Additional Data section for the host name associated with the service instance that is resolved. This is a SHOULD and not a MUST requirement so servers/resolvers are not required to provide this. This function attempts to parse AAAA record(s) if included in the response. If it is not included mHostAddress
is set to all zeros (unspecified address). To also resolve the host address, user can use the DNS client API function otDnsClientResolveServiceAndHostAddress()
which will perform service resolution followed up by a host name address resolution query (when AAAA records are not provided by server/resolver in the SRV query response).
- If a matching SRV record is found in
aResponse
,aServiceInfo
is updated. - If no matching SRV record is found,
OT_ERROR_NOT_FOUND
is returned unless the query config for this query usedOT_DNS_SERVICE_MODE_TXT
formServiceMode
(meaning the request was only for TXT record). In this case, we still try to parse the SRV record from Additional Data Section of response (in case server provided the info). - If no matching TXT record is found in
aResponse
,mTxtDataSize
inaServiceInfo
is set to zero. - If TXT data length is greater than
mTxtDataSize
, it is read partially andmTxtDataTruncated
is set to true. - If no matching AAAA record is found in

otDnsSetNameCompressionEnabled
void otDnsSetNameCompressionEnabled( bool aEnabled )
Enables/disables the "DNS name compression" mode.
By default DNS name compression is enabled. When disabled, DNS names are appended as full and never compressed. This is applicable to OpenThread's DNS and SRP client/server modules.
This is intended for testing only and available when OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_REFERENCE_DEVICE_ENABLE
config is enabled.
Note that in the case OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_MULTIPLE_INSTANCE_ENABLE
is used, this mode applies to all OpenThread instances (i.e., calling this function enables/disables the compression mode on all OpenThread instances).
