DNS Server
Currently building a DNS server to deepen my understanding of protocols and bit manipulation, transitioning from Python prototypes to low-level Go for clarity and control.
The Problem
Understanding how DNS works at a low level is crucial for network programming. This project aims to build a functional DNS server from scratch to gain deeper insights into protocol implementation and bit manipulation.
Solution
This DNS server implementation provides:
- Recursive and iterative DNS resolution
- Support for common DNS record types (A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, etc.)
- Caching mechanism for improved performance
- Python prototype for initial development and testing
- Low-level Go implementation for performance and control
- Modular architecture for extensibility
